I'm trying your 'cheesy hack' now Tom on the LiveCD. It didn't seem
to work initially as the Makefile in the 'bin' subdirectory wasn't
receiving the 'gcc -shared' instruction/directive. Just to be sure
its not a weirdness on the liveCD's part, I'm going to start again.
Several hours later I discovered that my first hack only worked
because I was
doing it in a dirty directory. Turns out that the tarball for
libgeotiff
Thats what caught me this morning.
has a config.in with a newer modification time than configure, and
a makefile
that has the following rules:
config.status: configure
./configure
configure: configure.in
autoconf
Which means that if you do a fresh untar and then do:
./configure --with-ld-shared="gcc -shared"
make
the makefile does this:
autoconf
./configure
build the code
which is Just Wrong, as it undoes your command line option.
yes... got that.
At about 2am this morning I changed the wiki *again* to add the
extra cheese
that touches configure first, so that the makefile doesn't rebuild it.
Well caught.
And as I restarted from scratch following your instructions, I now
have a shiny new Ubuntu 6.10 Live CD made that I'm about to burn...
but I need caffine first.
