[ptxdist] splashutils fails to build

[ptxdist] splashutils fails to build

[Martin Hejnfelt]

Hi,

After upgrading to OSELAS-Toolchain-2014.12.0, using
gcc-4.9.2-glibc-2.20-binutils-2.24-kernel-3.16 for
i686-atom-linux-gnu, suddenly splashutils (of ptxdist-2014.12.0) does
not build anymore. It fails with this:

  CC       fbsplashctl-util.o
  CC       fbsplashctl-fbsplashctl.o
  CCLD     fbsplashctl
/opt/OSELAS.Toolchain-2014.12.0/i686-atom-linux-gnu/gcc-4.9.2-glibc-2.20-binutils-2.24-kernel-3.16-sanitized/lib/gcc/i686-atom-linux-gnu/4.9.2/../../../../i686-atom-linux-gnu/bin/ld:
attempted static link of dynamic object `./.libs/libfbsplashrender.so'
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status

It worked with OSELAS-Toolchain-2013.12.2. so I guess this is an issue
due to the upgraded compiler tools, however I am no autotools master,
so I am struggling to iron out why it suddenly refers to the dynamic
libfbsplashrender.so instead of the static libfbsplashrender.la one...

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance.

Kind regards,
Martin Hejnfelt

Ok apparently something has changed somewhere so static libraries are
not compiled by default (even though the configure options state them
to be). Thus to get this compiling, I needed to explicitly set
--enable-static in the .make file, and do the same for libpng and
libjpeg (probably also for other libraries that might be needed
depending on the configuration through menuconfig).

Is this a change created by ptxdist, gcc or what?

Thanks :)

Kind regards,
Martin Hejnfelt

That's a change in PTXdist: We've added enable_static=no to the environment
(rules/pre/Rules.make). This changes the default --disable-static for all
configure scripts that have this option.

Hi Michael,

Thank you for clearing this up. So how should this be handled? First
of all, I guess --enable-static should be in the splashutils makefile,
second of all, should libpng and so on, then depend on this in some
way, or can that enable_static=no rule instead be changed directly
from splashutils if needed?
