Fran?ois, All,

It looks like there are still issues with search paths, which include
path to the host system libraries:
    http://autobuild.buildroot.org/results/336/33633a683227ebce620cb4b4561cfe7d7cbf4ba8/build-end.log

Extract of a failed build log:

    LD_RUN_PATH="/scratch/peko/host/usr/arm-buildroot-linux-uclibcgnueabi/sysroot/usr/lib"
    /scratch/peko/host/usr/bin/arm-buildroot-linux-uclibcgnueabi-gcc
    -shared  GD.o  -o blib/arch/auto/GD/GD.so       \
    -L/scratch/peko/host/usr/arm-buildroot-linux-uclibcgnueabi/sysroot/usr/lib
    -L/scratch/peko/host/usr/arm-buildroot-linux-uclibcgnueabi/sysroot/usr/lib
    -L/scratch/peko/host/usr/arm-buildroot-linux-uclibcgnueabi/sysroot/usr/lib
    -L/usr/lib -L/usr/lib -lXpm -lX11 -ljpeg -lfontconfig -lfreetype -lpng12
    -lz -lm -lgd

    /usr/lib/libXpm.so: file not recognized: File format not recognized

Notice how it is looking for libs in -L/usr/lib -L/usr/lib.

Since xlib_libXpm and xlib_libX11, as well as fontconfig and jpeg are
not enabled in this build, and that we do not package libpng-1.2, it
will try to link with all these libs: -lXpm -lX11 -ljpeg -lfontconfig
-lpng12 using the host ones.

Maybe we should explicitly idsable those deps if the corresponding
packages are not enabled, no?

I'll be looking at it, but if I can't find anything obvious, I'll let
you, Fran?ois, look into that.

Well, I already found that Makefile.PL has hardcoded paths to the host
system, but they all seem conditional to something; I'll see if we can
trigger (or not trigger) those conditions.

Regards,
Yann E. MORIN.
