• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

please local # prelink -avfmR

Prelinking /usr/lib/libpng.so.3.1.2.5
Prelinking /usr/lib/opengl/nvidia/lib/libGLcore.so.1.0.4363
prelink: Warning: /usr/lib/libGLcore.so.1 has undefined non-weak symbols
Segmentation fault

unmerging nvidia-glx allows prelinking to successfully complete.  This has shown
up consistently with 20030217, 20030505, and a hand built 20030522. I also tried
compiling prelink and elfutils with just CFLAGS="-pipe", same result. I intend
to file a bug report directly with the prelink folks with more debugging info, 
but I thought you might like to know, too. 

Reproducible: Always

Works fine here.  Try with gcc-3.3-r1, or 3.3.1.  If not, try a vanilla/gentoo
kernel.

[Comment 2 Stefan Jones (RETIRED) 2003-08-19 10:08:01 UTC]

Well as soon as CVS is up again I will update prelink to 20030811. Test etc ...

Also RedHat has decided to make a prelink cron job to reprelink the system preiodically .... we could do soething like that ourselves or do it in portage as in a preiodically spawned process in the background ..

Anyway,

Stefan

OK I am out of town, I will try gcc-3.3.1 next week when I get back and see what happens.

[Comment 4 giggles1 2003-08-27 22:28:22 UTC]

I just tried with elfutils-0.84 and prelink-20030811 rebuilt with gcc-3.3.1 and the problem persists.  I will try a vanilla kernel when I get time. 

[Comment 5 Richard 2003-08-28 18:35:24 UTC]

Never had a problem with this either.

[Comment 6 Matteo Sasso 2003-09-11 07:38:47 UTC]

I seem to have got the same problem, but the segfault happens with another 
library: /usr/X11R6/lib/libXm.so.2.1 
I suppose it's from XFree86, but a quick "qpkg -f /usr/X11R6/lib/libXm.so.2.1" 
gives no results!!! %-/ (The program just quits without output) 
BTW, I think qpkg should at least say something like: "Dude, no 'build 
found!". 
I installed a couple of binary packages which got no ebuild yet (e.g. Maya), 
and Maya also installs a libXm.so.2, but it's in another directory. 
I'm using "prelink -aRflv" compiled with gcc-3.2.3 and running under a vanilla 
kernel v2.6.0-test5. 
Should you need more info, feel free to ask! ;) 

[Comment 7 giggles1 2003-10-30 18:58:14 UTC]

The newest version of prelink seem to have fixed this problem (for me at
least).

[Comment 8 Stefan Jones (RETIRED) 2003-10-31 08:32:27 UTC]

Ok, closing bug
I don't get a crash here also.

[Comment 9 Gyula Lukacs 2004-04-08 08:36:32 UTC]

Hi guys, it looks like I have the same problem, with latest stable gcc (3.3.2-r5), nvidia-glx (1.0.4496) and prelink (20030811). Which prelink might fix it and is stable enough?

[Comment 10 Stefan Jones (RETIRED) 2004-04-08 08:43:31 UTC]

Try prelink-20040317 which I just marked as stable

[Comment 11 Gyula Lukacs 2004-04-08 22:12:33 UTC]

Hi Stefan,

it's working great. Thank you very much for your quick response.
