I'm trying to compile bash-4.0 with gcc-4.3.3-r2 and binutils-2.19.1-r1. Bash was configured with the following options: --prefix=/tools --build=x86_64-pc-linux-gnu --host=x86_64-pc-linux-gnu
Please notice I have set CFLAGS environment variable to: -O2 -march=core2 -Wl,--dynamic-linker=/tools/lib/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 Of course I have glibc installed in /tools. Well, bash get configured and compiled fine, but then if I issue ldd bash I get the following: linux-vdso.so.1 => (0x00007fffcb3ff000) libncurses.so.5 => not found libdl.so.2 => /tools/lib/libdl.so.2 (0x00007f14c2e65000) libc.so.6 => /tools/lib/libc.so.6 (0x00007f14c2b0d000) /tools/lib/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 (0x00007f14c3069000) I have not installed ncurses in /tools. If I install it before attempting to compile bash, the problem is fixed. But I wonder why ld does not complain at build-time... Perhaps it is a bug. -- Summary: linker doesn't throw an error in case of missing libraries Product: binutils Version: 2.19 Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: ld AssignedTo: unassigned at sources dot redhat dot com ReportedBy: booleandomain at gmail dot com CC: bug-binutils at gnu dot org GCC build triplet: x86_64-pc-linux-gnu GCC host triplet: x86_64-pc-linux-gnu GCC target triplet: x86_64-pc-linux-gnu http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=10361 ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is. _______________________________________________ bug-binutils mailing list bug-binutils@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-binutils
