[Bluez-users] bluez-utils-2.14 compile error: make returns "cannot find -lbluetooth"

[Bluez-users] bluez-utils-2.14 compile error: make returns "cannot find -lbluetooth"

[tcalexander]

Hello everyone!
I'm using Yoper with a 2.6.8.1-3 kernel. I downloaded bluez-libs and
bluez-utils, both 2.14. Did the following:
(in /home/blabla/bluez-libs-2.14)
./configure --prefix=/usr/local/bluez
make
(did a su)
make install 
(so far so good)
(now to /home/blabla/bluez-utils-2.14)
./configure --prefix=/usr/local/bluez
make
(now things go crappy, read below the final lines of the output)

gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I..    -I/usr/local/bluez/include 
-I/usr/local/bluez/include -Wall -O2 -c `test -f 'hcisecfilter.c' ||
echo './'`hcisecfilter.c
gcc -I/usr/local/bluez/include  -I/usr/local/bluez/include -Wall -O2  
-o hcisecfilter  hcisecfilter.o  -lbluetooth
/usr/lib/gcc/i686-pc-linux-gnu/3.4.1/../../../../i686-pc-linux-gnu/bin/ld:
cannot find -lbluetooth
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make[2]: *** [hcisecfilter] Error 1
make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/blabla/bluez-utils-2.14/tools'
make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/blabla/bluez-utils-2.14'
make: *** [all] Error 2

*blabla stands for a long and awkward branch of the directory tree; I
found it to be annoying, so I replaced it;

Couldn't find any hints anywhere. :( I saw another topic on compile
errors, but it wasn't quite what I needed, so I came up with this one.
If it's been discussed earlier, please point it out. 10x in advance.

you need to install bluez-libs first and make sure bluez-utils can find
it.

Hello!

I guess your linker just can't find the bluetooth library because you 
have installed it into a non-standard path.
 > ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/bluez

make install runs the command `ldconfig -n /usr/local/bluez/lib' but the 
option -n forces ldconfig just to create the library links and not to 
update the cache. (man ldconfig)
Add this path to your /etc/ld.so.conf and re-run ldconfig as root.

`ldconfig -p | grep bluetooth' should show libbluetooth now!

Best regards,
Sebastian

Added /usr/local/bluez/lib (even tried /usr/local/bluez), ran ldconfig as root.
ldconfig -p | grep bluetooth
        libbluetooth.so.1 (libc6) => /usr/local/bluez/lib/libbluetooth.so.1
        libbluetooth.so (libc6) => /usr/local/bluez/lib/libbluetooth.so
Same thing gets spat out during make. :((
bluez-libs...I had that installed first...at least that's what I
presume I did. :)
I've even turned religous - started praying, that is. :P

if you use a different prefix than /usr you might to tell the utils
about it. Look at --with-bluez=... for example.

Regards
