I’m trying to build the latest version 2.9.7 using msys2. I am getting 2 problems.
1. I need to export LIBS="-lws2_32 -lgdi32 -lkernel32" before running ./configure. Otherwise I will get lots of linkage errors. 2. After adding the above libraries, I get the following error: make[2]: Entering directory '/c/Build/libxml2-2.9.7' CCLD xmllint.exe xmllint.o: In function `xmllintExternalEntityLoader': C:\Build\libxml2-2.9.7/xmllint.c:310: undefined reference to `_imp__xmlFree' C:\Build\libxml2-2.9.7/xmllint.c:307: undefined reference to `_imp__xmlFree' xmllint.o: In function `myStrdupFunc': C:\Build\libxml2-2.9.7/xmllint.c:381: undefined reference to `_imp__xmlFree' xmllint.o: In function `processNode': C:\Build\libxml2-2.9.7/xmllint.c:1805: undefined reference to `_imp__xmlFree' xmllint.o: In function `xmlHTMLEncodeSend': C:\Build\libxml2-2.9.7/xmllint.c:534: undefined reference to `_imp__xmlFree' xmllint.o:C:\Build\libxml2-2.9.7/xmllint.c:2598: more undefined references to `_imp__xmlFree' follow collect2.exe: error: ld returned 1 exit status make[2]: *** [Makefile:1119: xmllint.exe] Error 1 make[2]: Leaving directory '/c/Build/libxml2-2.9.7' make[1]: *** [Makefile:1441: all-recursive] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory '/c/Build/libxml2-2.9.7' make: *** [Makefile:860: all] Error 2 I checked .libs directory and found: libtestdso.a libxml2.a libxml2.la libxml2.lai testdso.la testdso.lai It seems the build did not build dll library even though it should do (by default). I’m not familiar with Bash script or makefile syntax, so I am not able to find the cause. Help needed. Thanks.
