Subject: Build fails due to wrong placement of -llibrary options
Date: Sat, 28 Aug 2010 14:23:07 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <4C78FFAB.1000906@t-online.de> (raw)
I'm trying to fix the build on Cygwin after the recent move to the new
autogen/automake build system.
There is one Cygwin independent issue found so far:
$ make
[...]
gcc [...] -lintl -o grub-bin2h.exe util/grub_bin2h-bin2h.o libgrub.a
libgrub.a(...): undefined reference to `_libintl_gettext'
[...]
Workaround:
$ make LIBS=-lintl
[...]
gcc [...] -lintl -o grub-bin2h.exe util/grub_bin2h-bin2h.o libgrub.a -lintl
The placement of -llibrary options matter because the linker searches
libraries and objects in the order specified.
$ grep ^grub_bin2h_LD Makefile
grub_bin2h_LDADD = libgrub.a
grub_bin2h_LDFLAGS = $(AM_LDFLAGS) $(LDFLAGS_PROGRAM) $(LIBINTL)
$(LIBDEVMAPPER)
The above should be:
grub_bin2h_LDADD = libgrub.a $(LIBINTL) $(LIBDEVMAPPER)
grub_bin2h_LDFLAGS = $(AM_LDFLAGS) $(LDFLAGS_PROGRAM)
Same for all other utils. This likely needs to be fixed in gentpl.py.
