Bug 274536 – dev-libs/xmlrpc-c-1.18.02: shared libraries not installed

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Ambroz Bizjak 2009-06-17 18:50:04 UTC]

Emerging dev-libs/xmlrpc-c-1.18.02 results in only static libraries being installed, no shared libraries. This causes compilation failures in programs using xmlrpc-c, like net-p2p/rtorrent.

This is happening on my ARM board but not on my x86_64 PC.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:




Portage 2.2_rc33 (default/linux/arm/2008.0, gcc-4.1.2, glibc-2.6.1-r0, 2.6.30 armv5tel)

I'd say build.log is the minimum of what you need to attach.

This looks like an upstream problem -
it seems that upstream decided it's smarter than libtool
and can handle all the cases by itself
It seems, however, that shared libs on arm is one of the cases they've missed.

Search for string linux-gnu instead of matching exactly

Please test if this patch fixes the problem.
