Subject: libz and RHEL 5.9 compile of Git
Date: Wed, 22 Jan 2014 07:59:52 -0800 (PST)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1390406392415-7602374.post@n2.nabble.com> (raw)

Hello,

I have a RHEL system that I am not the admin of. I needed to install git and
got the source. Everything is okay until I got to this point below. I
downloaded and installed the latest libz (1.2.8) but i installed it under a
local directory under my user name (i.e. /home/ssheikh/local). The problem
is that git only looks in the locations below. I even have that directory in
my $LD_LIBRARY_PATH. So, how can I force make to use that version of libz
and not the old one that came with this RHEL 5.9 distro?

[ssheikh@gs-560g3080090e git-1.8.3.4]$ make
    LINK git-credential-store
/usr/bin/ld: skipping incompatible /lib/libz.so when searching for -lz
/usr/bin/ld: skipping incompatible /usr/lib/libz.so when searching for -lz
/usr/bin/ld: skipping incompatible /usr/lib/libz.a when searching for -lz
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lz
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make: *** [git-credential-store] Error 1
