[GENERAL] 9.1.1 build failure : postgres link fails
I just got round to updating my laptop to ubuntu-10.4 (32bit), in part because I kept hitting snags while trying to configure postgres 9.1.1. The upgrade did in fact solve the dependency issues (though I was surprised UUID came along with out the ossp specific impl??) but the build is having troubles linking the server executable. Here's my configure line: ./configure --with-pgport=5439 --with-perl --with-python --with-openssl --with-ldap --with-ossp-uuid --with-libxml --with-libxslt and the tail of the configure output: configure: creating ./config.status config.status: creating GNUmakefile config.status: creating src/Makefile.global config.status: creating src/include/pg_config.h config.status: creating src/interfaces/ecpg/include/ecpg_config.h config.status: linking src/backend/port/tas/dummy.s to src/backend/port/tas.s config.status: linking src/backend/port/dynloader/linux.c to src/backend/port/dynloader.c config.status: linking src/backend/port/sysv_sema.c to src/backend/port/pg_sema.c config.status: linking src/backend/port/sysv_shmem.c to src/backend/port/pg_shmem.c config.status: linking src/backend/port/unix_latch.c to src/backend/port/pg_latch.c config.status: linking src/backend/port/dynloader/linux.h to src/include/dynloader.h config.status: linking src/include/port/linux.h to src/include/pg_config_os.h config.status: linking src/makefiles/Makefile.linux to src/Makefile.port ubuntu-10.4 is not the latest of course and comes with gnu make 3.8.1, but it seems to compile everything then fails to link postgres executable: gcc -O2 -Wall -Wmissing-prototypes -Wpointer-arith -Wdeclaration-after-statement -Wendif-labels -Wformat-security -fno-strict-aliasing -fwrapv -L../../src/port -Wl,--as-needed -Wl,-rpath,'/usr/local/pgsql/lib',--enable-new-dtags -Wl,-E TONS OF DOT OHs ../../src/port/libpgport_srv.a -lxslt -lxml2 -lssl -lcrypto -lcrypt -ldl -lm -lldap -o postgres postmaster/postmaster.o: In function `PostmasterMain': postmaster.c:(.text+0x48d7): undefined reference to `optreset' tcop/postgres.o: In function `process_postgres_switches': postgres.c:(.text+0x1312): undefined reference to `optreset' utils/misc/ps_status.o: In function `set_ps_display': ps_status.c:(.text+0xd4): undefined reference to `setproctitle' collect2: ld returned 1 exit status make[2]: *** [postgres] Error 1 make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/rob/tools/postgresql-9.1.1/src/backend' make[1]: *** [all-backend-recurse] Error 2 make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/rob/tools/postgresql-9.1.1/src' make: *** [all-src-recurse] Error 2 -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
