[Qemu-devel] Gentoo & qemu & non-static build

[rutger@mail.com]

Hi,

I cannot get qemu to build on Gentoo ~x86. Is has to do with the known
problem that alsa-lib is not build staticly, and therefore libsdl.a
cannot be linked to, and therefore qemu cannot be build staticly also.

Output in that case:

...
gcc  -static -Wl,-T,/home/rutger/download/qemu-0.5.3/i386-vl.ld  -o qemu-fast vl.o osdep.o block.o monitor.o ide.o ne2000.o pckbd.o vga.o sb16.o dma.o oss.o fdc.o mc146818rtc.o serial.o i8259.o i8254.o pc.o gdbstub.o sdl.o libqemu.a  -lm -L/usr/lib -Wl,-rpath,/usr/lib -lSDL -lpthread -lm -ldl -lasound -L/usr/X11R6/lib -lX11 -lXext -laa -L/usr/lib -Wl,-rpath,/usr/lib -laa -lm -L/usr/X11R6/lib -lX11 -lncurses -lutil

The problem on the qemu side is that I cannot get qemu to build
non-staticly. I tried './configure --no-static', which gives 'static
build no' (but then again, that's no different from when I remove the
--no-static), but the build command still fails. It ends different
however, with:

...
gcc -Wall -O2 -g -fomit-frame-pointer  -g -static -Wl,-T,/home/rutger/download/qemu-0.5.3/i386.ld i386 ../dyngen.c   -o ../dyngen
gcc: i386: No such file or directory
make: *** [../dyngen] Error 1
make: Leaving directory `/home/rutger/download/qemu-0.5.3/i386'


Anyone any idea on how to build qemu dynamically?

Regards,
Rutger.
