Category: Compile-Time Group: None >Status: Open >Resolution: None Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Paul Wise (pabs3) >Assigned to: Paul Wise (pabs3) Summary: synfig configure doesn't prefer the system libltdl Initial Comment: synfig's configure process does not use the system libltdl when available, instead linking the embedded version in statically, without using -fPIC. This causes problems on non-i386 platforms, which need PIC to work. The best solution to this is to prefer the system libltdl. If that can't be done, synfig needs to be sure to compile libltdl with PIC. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Paul Wise (pabs3) Date: 2007-11-30 11:55 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=35028 Originator: YES <pabs3> pxegeek: (for when you return): until I figure out how to fix this properly, in configure.ac, changing AC_LIBLTDL_INSTALLABLE to AC_LIBLTDL_CONVENIENCE and reautotooling should allow you to build <pabs3> hmm, doesn't seem to be a way to use the convenience libltdl, but use the system-wide one in preference to it <pabs3> http://osdir.com/ml/gnu.gnash.devel2/2006-11/msg00422.html <pabs3> I think that I have to agree with that post, and that we should just use AC_LIBLTDL_CONVENIENCE <pabs3> KiBi / dooglus / sladegen / Bombe / omry: thoughts? * pabs3 commits for now <pabs3> hmm <CIA-35> synfig: pabs * r1169 /synfig-core/trunk/configure.ac: <CIA-35> synfig: Use AC_LIBLTDL_CONVENIENCE instead of AC_LIBLTDL_INSTALLABLE because Win32 <CIA-35> synfig: doesn't seem to be able to link a libsynfig DLL to a libltdl DLL and there <CIA-35> synfig: doesn't seem to be a way to compile libltdl statically and libsynfig <CIA-35> synfig: dynamically. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Paul Wise (pabs3) Date: 2006-02-04 19:13 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=35028 Fixed in svn version 124 by using AC_LIBLTDL_INSTALLABLE. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=757416&aid=1423944&group_id=144022 ------------------------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is sponsored by: The Future of Linux Business White Paper from Novell.
