[Buildroot] libgcc_s.so.1 missing from filesystem

[Buildroot] libgcc_s.so.1 missing from filesystem

[David Lambert]

I built several utilities including python using buildroot. A commom 
problem seems to be that they depend on a library libgcc.so.1 which 
appears in buildroot/build_arm/staging_dir/lib/libgcc_s.so.1, but does 
not get transferred to the target filesystem. Manually moving it to the 
target appears to be a workaround. Is there a more elegant solution? 
What is this library?

Regards,

Dave.

One possible solution is to unset BR2_GCC_SHARED_LIBGCC in the buildroot
configuration, to get rid of the shared libgcc alltogether.

Information on libgcc can be found here:

http://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gccint/Libgcc.html

I haven't narrowed it down to exactly which version of Buildroot stopped
deploying the libgcc_so.1, but I've found that an older cataloged version in
our source control was deploying that library properly. The newer version of
buildroot tends to skip over a few other libraries as well.

My .config is attached and I'm using the snapshot of Buildroot from Oct 9th.

Could I have a copy of your buildroot .config file?  I've tested
both with and without BR2_GCC_SHARED_LIBGCC set and both settings
produced working root filesystems for me....

Erik,
	I removed my manual copy and it now works! The only change is that I 
have since run svn update (to revision 16401). Unfortunately I do not 
remember the revision where the problem occurred. In any case I am 
including my .config file as you requested.

Best regards,

Dave.
