Thanks, at times finding things is a maze of twisty passages all alike

Perhaps my bug report - should be reclassified as a bug in ioperm devel dependencies 
in that libioperm development - should automatically require libpopt devel.

BUG: libioperm + libtool + libpopt

2009-05-16 Thread Duane Ellis
I'm only reporting an issue,  I don't have a solution other then the 
'hatchet' job workaround.


I just installed cygwin +3 days ago, using what ever is the latest 
version of what ever on a freshly minted winXP machine.


A package I am using links using libtool - which uses and finds:   
/usr/lib/libioperm.la


Which claims to have this dependency:

   # Libraries that this one depends upon.
   dependency_libs=' /usr/lib/libpopt.la'

yet, there is no 'libpoptanything' I can find to link against.

I can find the below via cygwin-setup.exe

  Current version: 1.6.4-4, keep,  libpop0: Library for parsing 
cmdline parameters - (runtime)


There is no (development) version I can find to install, and 
truthfully libioperm does not seem to really need libpopt because, if 
I comment it out, my link succeeds :-)


I believe one of two things need to happen:

(A)   the libioperm.la - is WRONG and needs to be updated
or (B) libpopt - development version needs to be created under cygwin.

I don't know enough about doing that - and my work around, while a hack 
job - works for me.


-Duane.

  Duane, this is the cygwin website package-search page.  Cygwin website
package-search page, this is Duane.  He wants to ask you a question about
where to find libpopt.la

 http://cygwin.com/cgi-bin2/package-grep.cgi?grep=libpopt.la

  Thank you, cygwin website package-search page!

 I can find the below via cygwin-setup.exe
 
   Current version: 1.6.4-4, keep,  libpop0: Library for parsing cmdline 
 parameters - (runtime)

  Sometimes the -devel package for a libXXX isn't called XXX-devel; sometimes
it's just called XXX.

cheers,
  DaveK
