library linking problems with multiarch cross-building

[peter green]

My previous experiments with multiarch cross-building had run into lots 
of build-dependency and tool problems and as a result I hadn't got 
arround to actually building anything beyond trivial test programs.


Unfortunately I have now discovered that when I try to  link against 
some libraries I get link errors.


root@debian:/# arm-linux-gnueabihf-gcc test.c -lglib-2.0
/usr/lib/gcc/arm-linux-gnueabihf/4.7/../../../../arm-linux-gnueabihf/bin/ld: 
warning: libpcre.so.3, needed by 
/usr/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/libglib-2.0.so, not found (try using -rpath 
or -rpath-link)
/usr/lib/gcc/arm-linux-gnueabihf/4.7/../../../../arm-linux-gnueabihf/bin/ld:

or -rpath-link)
/usr/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/libglib-2.0.so: undefined reference to 
`pthread_rwlock_wrlock@GLIBC_2.4'


Any thoughts on what could be causing this and how best to fix it?

This is a bug in the cross compiler that you're using.  You can work around
it by passing this option to gcc:

  -Wl,-rpath-link=/usr/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf:/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf:/usr/lib

To work around this class of bug when doing package builds, you can use the
standard DEB_LDFLAGS_APPEND interface, as described at
:

export DEB_LDFLAGS_APPEND="-L/usr/lib/arm-linux-gnueabi 
-L/lib/arm-linux-gnueabi -L/usr/lib 
-Wl,-rpath-link=/usr/lib/arm-linux-gnueabi:/lib/arm-linux-gnueabi:/usr/lib"

HTH,
