Bug#888059: libtool: the generated run path order is incorrect, yielding failures with "make check"

[Vincent Lefevre]

Control: found -1 2.4.7-4
Control: retitle -1 libtool: the generated run path order is incorrect, 
yielding failures with "make check", e.g. for Solaris

Updated the title to mention Solaris, so that this bug report can be
found more easily (I currently have this issue only with Solaris/x86).

Now with GNU MPFR 4.1.1:

FAIL: tversion
Incorrect MPFR version! (4.1.1 header vs 4.1.0 library)
[...]

and I can see

/usr/xpg4/bin/sh ../libtool  --tag=CC--mode=link /opt/csw/bin/gcc-5.2  
-Wall -Wmissing-prototypes -Wpointer-arith -O2 -pipe -fno-omit-frame-pointer 
-m32 -march=pentiumpro -ffloat-store  -no-install -L../src/.libs  -o tzeta_ui 
tzeta_ui.o libfrtests.la -lm -lquadmath ../src/libmpfr.la -lgmp
libtool: link: /opt/csw/bin/gcc-5.2 -Wall -Wmissing-prototypes -Wpointer-arith 
-O2 -pipe -fno-omit-frame-pointer -m32 -march=pentiumpro -ffloat-store -o 
tzeta_ui tzeta_ui.o  -L../src/.libs ./.libs/libfrtests.a 
/opt/csw/lib/libquadmath.so -lm ../src/.libs/libmpfr.so -lgmp -R/opt/csw/lib 
-R/home/vincent/mpfrtests-unstable10x-3216/obj/src/.libs -R/opt/csw/lib 
-R/usr/local/lib

i.e. the failure comes from the fact that -R/opt/csw/lib appears
before -R/home/vincent/mpfrtests-unstable10x-3216/obj/src/.libs,
so that /opt/csw/lib/libmpfr.so is used instead of the version
that has just been built under mpfrtests-unstable10x-3216.

Bug#888059: libtool: the generated run path order is incorrect, yielding failures with "make check"

[Vincent Lefevre]

Package: libtool
Version: 2.4.6-2
Severity: important
Tags: upstream
Forwarded: https://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=30222

I've generated a MPFR 4.0.1-rc1 tarball from Debian and tested it
on Solaris. The result: all tests from "make check" fail because
the tested MPFR version is the one installed on the system instead
of the local one. I've looked at one of the "link" commands:

/bin/bash ../libtool  --tag=CC--mode=link gcc  -Wall -Wmissing-prototypes 
-Wpointer-arith -g -O2 -ffloat-store  -no-install -L../src/.libs  -o tadd 
tadd.o libfrtests.la -lm -lquadmath ../src/libmpfr.la -lgmp
libtool: link: gcc -Wall -Wmissing-prototypes -Wpointer-arith -g -O2 
-ffloat-store -o tadd tadd.o  -L../src/.libs ./.libs/libfrtests.a 
/opt/csw/lib/libquadmath.so -lm ../src/.libs/libmpfr.so -lgmp -R/opt/csw/lib 
-R/tmp/mpfrtests-vincent-15114/obj/src/.libs -R/opt/csw/lib -R/usr/local/lib

which is wrong! Indeed, one has the system -R/opt/csw/lib before
the local -R/tmp/mpfrtests-vincent-15114/obj/src/.libs, so that the
system MPFR library has the precedence over the local one (the one
that should be tested).

$ ldd tadd
libquadmath.so.0 =>  /opt/csw/lib/libquadmath.so.0
libm.so.2 => /lib/libm.so.2
libmpfr.so.6 =>  /opt/csw/lib/libmpfr.so.6
libgmp.so.10 =>  /opt/csw/lib/libgmp.so.10
libc.so.1 => /lib/libc.so.1
libgcc_s.so.1 => /opt/csw/lib/i386/libgcc_s.so.1

Note: MPFR was configured with

  ../mpfr-4.0.1-rc1/configure --enable-assert=full

In the generated "libtool" script:

# Compile-time system search path for libraries.
sys_lib_search_path_spec="/opt/csw/lib/gcc/i386-pc-solaris2.10/5.5.0 
/opt/csw/i386-pc-solaris2.10/lib /opt/csw/lib /lib /usr/lib "

# Detected run-time system search path for libraries.
sys_lib_dlsearch_path_spec="/lib /usr/lib"

and the environment doesn't contain anything that would cause the
error.
