[Bug ld/10361] New: linker doesn't throw an error in case of missing libraries
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 => (0x7fffcb3ff000) libncurses.so.5 => not found libdl.so.2 => /tools/lib/libdl.so.2 (0x7f14c2e65000) libc.so.6 => /tools/lib/libc.so.6 (0x7f14c2b0d000) /tools/lib/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 (0x7f14c3069000) 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
[Bug binutils/10376] New: configure: error: cannot compute sizeof (off_t), 77
I'm trying to compile binutils-2.19.1 with gcc-4.4.0. It fails with the following error message: checking size of off_t... configure: error: in `/home/booleandomain/tmp/lfs/sources/binutils-build/bfd': configure: error: cannot compute sizeof (off_t), 77 See `config.log' for more details. make[1]: *** [configure-bfd] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/booleandomain/tmp/lfs/sources/binutils-build' make: *** [all] Error 2 I configured binutils as follows: --prefix=/tools --build=x86_64-pc-linux-gnu --host=x86_64-pc-linux-gnu --target=x86_64-pc-linux-gnu Looking at bfd/config.log it seems the problem is due to the fact binutils is looking in /tools for libz.so.1 (it doesn't exist there). If I install zlib in /tools and then try again building binutils, everything works. I think this is a bug because binutils should look at /lib64/libz.so.1 instead. -- Summary: configure: error: cannot compute sizeof (off_t), 77 Product: binutils Version: 2.19 Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: binutils 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=10376 --- 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

[Bug binutils/10380] New: cannot build binutils statically
I'm trying to build binutils-2.19.1 statically. I tried with
../binutils-2.19.1/configure LDFLAGS="-static" && make but I get:
ldd binutils/ar
linux-vdso.so.1 => (0x7fffaf9ff000)
libz.so.1 => /lib/libz.so.1 (0x7fe1a223d000)
libc.so.6 => /lib/libc.so.6 (0x7fe1a1ee2000)
/lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 (0x7fe1a2453000)
This procedure works for all other packages I'm trying to compile (gcc, bash,
...) but it seems not to work for binutils. Why? Is there perhaps another way to
accomplish this? I also tried reading ./configure --help, README and
binutils/README but there is no useful information.

--- Additional Comments From booleandomain at gmail dot com 2009-07-09 19:55 --- It seems the problem is not related to CFLAGS containing -Wl,--dynamic-linker,/tools/lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2, but to the fact I probably installed glibc in /tools in the wrong way. In fact, I configured in with --prefix=/tools instead of installing it with install_root=/tools. I can't see why, but it seems there is a difference between the two. -- http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=10376 --- 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

But why do I need --static while all other packages (gmp, mpfr, bash, ...) work with -static? Also, I think there should be a document either in binutils sources or on the binutils homepage that explains how to build binutils statically. -- http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=10380 --- 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
[Bug binutils/10428] New: --with-sysroot configure option is undocumented
The --with-sysroot option is not documented anywhere. The only similar option I am aware of is --with-build-sysroot, but that's a different switch. I think a good place where to put some information is inside the ./configure --help command. Details about what to put inside the sysroot directory before trying to build binutils should be included, too. -- Summary: --with-sysroot configure option is undocumented Product: binutils Version: 2.19 Status: NEW Severity: enhancement Priority: P2 Component: binutils AssignedTo: unassigned at sources dot redhat dot com ReportedBy: booleandomain at gmail dot com CC: bug-binutils at gnu dot org http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=10428 --- 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
