Subject: emacs-23.1.96: problem on GNU/Linux AMD64 (Red Hat 4.8)
Date: Tue, 20 Apr 2010 21:55:59 -0600 (MDT) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <CMM.0.94.0.1271822159.beebe@sunburst.math.utah.edu> (raw)
A build of emacs-23.1.96 on GNU/Linux AMD64 (Red Hat 4.8) with
% set path=(/bin /usr/bin)
% env LDFLAGS='-Wl,-rpath,/usr/local/lib64 -L/usr/local/lib64' ./configure && make all check
failed like this:
configure:15477: gcc -o conftest -O2 -D_BSD_SOURCE \
-Wl,-rpath,/usr/local/lib64 -L/usr/local/lib64 -Wl,-znocombreloc \
-L/usr/X11R6/lib conftest.c -lungif -lX11 >&5
/usr/bin/ld: skipping incompatible /usr/X11R6/lib/libX11.so when searching for -lX11
/usr/bin/ld: skipping incompatible /usr/X11R6/lib/libX11.a when searching for -lX11
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lX11
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
configure:15484: $? = 1
On Red Hat and OpenSuSE AMD64 systems, the default world is 64-bit,
and libraries reside in /usr/local/lib64; the companion /usr/local/lib
holds only 32-bit libraries. Thus it is WRONG WRONG WRONG for
configure to be sticking in -L/usr/X11R6/lib, overriding the correct
settings supplied in LDFLAGS!
The directory /usr/X11R6/lib has only 32-bit libraries, whereas
/usr/X11R6/lib64 has the needed 64-bit ones, and because that
directory is vendor supplied, it is already listed in the directories
known to /sbin/ldconfig, and thus need NOT be supplied.
I was able to get a successful build by putting /usr/local/bin at the
front of PATH; the config.log file then shows correct configure-time
tests like this:
gcc -o conftest -O2 -D_BSD_SOURCE -Wl,-rpath,/usr/local/lib64 \
-L/usr/local/lib64 -Wl,-znocombreloc -L/usr/X11R6/lib64 \
conftest.c -lX11
