Sorry to dredge this up again, but I posted about this last January, and I don't think (or recall) that I ever got a usable answer. I'm running into it again.
I'm building Qt 4.8.6 static UB under OS X using Xcode 4.x: i686-apple-darwin11-llvm-g++-4.2 (GCC) 4.2.1 (Based on Apple Inc. build 5658) (LLVM build 2336.11.00)). My Qt configure line is: ./configure -opensource -confirm-license -static -fast -cocoa -sdk /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/MacOSX.platform/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.7.sdk -arch i386 x86_64 -prefix /usr/local/qt/4.8.6/macx_static -nomake examples -nomake demos -openssl -I /Users/bob/openssl_macx_101h/include -L /Users/bob/openssl_macx_101h/lib I'm getting a link error with Assistant: ld: warning: directory not found for option '-L/usr/local/qt/4.8.6/macx_static/plugins/sqldrivers' ld: warning: directory not found for option '-L/usr/local/qt/4.8.6/macx_static/plugins/sqldrivers' ld: bad codegen, pointer diff in fulltextsearch::clucene::QHelpSearchIndexReaderClucene::run() to global weak symbol vtable for QtSharedPointer::ExternalRefCountDatafor architecture i386 collect2: ld returned 1 exit status Google isn't turning up much that is helpful. I've tried various combinations of the "visibility" flags, as that's about all that's turning up, and it isn't helping. Any suggestions, insights, or perhaps is there a configure flag to disable building Assistant (and any other part of the system that will give me this problem)? And, yes, I am deliberately building static, so "-static" is not an accident. _______________________________________________ Interest mailing list Interest@qt-project.org http://lists.qt-project.org/mailman/listinfo/interest
