I tested http://people.canonical.com/~hrw/binutils-arm-linux-gnueabi_2.20.51.20100617-0ubuntu1_amd64.deb which is Marcin's latest build. It has the workaround I mentioned in comment #16 but it doesn't have the binutils patch mentionned here. As expected, it fixes the pcre3 FTBFS, but it doesn't fix the ncurses issue: /usr/lib/gcc/arm-linux-gnueabi/4.4.4/../../../../arm-linux-gnueabi/bin/ld: warning: libdl.so.2, needed by ../lib/libncurses.so, not found (try using -rpath or -rpath-link) ../lib/libncurses.so: undefined reference to `dl...@glibc_2.4'
So all expected so far. I've test the binutils with the "hrw2" version with the ncurses snapshot I mentionned earlier, 5.7+20100626, and after updating the Debian patches to apply I can confirm it cross-builds fine. It does NOT cross-build with the above binutils though, due to missing link with -ldl: arm-linux-gnueabi-gcc -I../progs -I/home/lool/ncurses/progs -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -D_GNU_SOURCE -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 -DNDEBUG -I. -I../include -I/home/lool/ncurses/progs/../include -O2 -g --param max-inline-insns-single=1200 -fPIC -c /home/lool/ncurses/progs/transform.c -o ../obj_s/transform.o arm-linux-gnueabi-gcc ../obj_s/tic.o ../obj_s/dump_entry.o ../obj_s/transform.o -Wl,-Bsymbolic-functions -I../progs -I/home/lool/ncurses/progs -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -D_GNU_SOURCE -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 -DNDEBUG -I. -I../include -I/home/lool/ncurses/progs/../include -O2 -g --param max-inline-insns-single=1200 -fPIC -L../lib -ltic -L../lib -lncurses -o tic /usr/lib/gcc/arm-linux-gnueabi/4.4.4/../../../../arm-linux-gnueabi/bin/ld: warning: libdl.so.2, needed by ../lib/libncurses.so, not found (try using -rpath or -rpath-link) ../lib/libncurses.so: undefined reference to `dl...@glibc_2.4' ../lib/libncurses.so: undefined reference to `dlcl...@glibc_2.4' ../lib/libncurses.so: undefined reference to `dlo...@glibc_2.4' collect2: ld returned 1 exit status make[2]: *** [tic] Error 1 make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/lool/ncurses/obj/progs' I will attach the full ncurses build log for this failure. What's odd is that the libncurses.so in the built tree is linked to libdl.so, Conclusion: with latest ncurses, the patch to binutils to lookup libs in sysroot is needed (hrw2) and the kludge to add x86 support for libtool-based packages doesn't help. I don't think ncurses needs further fixing upstream. -- Cross build needs rpath with xdeb https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/598389 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
