Bug 27217 – libtool can't find the right libaries while compiling KDE-related stuff

• Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Thomas Schlesinger (RETIRED) 2003-08-24 06:36:32 UTC]

I've downloaded the thin-keramik-the from www.kde-look.org and tried to compile.
While making, I get the following error message:

libtool: link: cannot find the library
`/usr/lib/gcc-lib/i586-pc-linux-gnu/3.2.2/libstdc++.la'

I've tried to fix it with the a "fix_libtool_files.sh 3.2.2 --oldarch
i586-pc-linux-gnu", but this script didn't replace the library-paths. An "emerge
kdebase" runs into the same error message. I suppose, at least all KDE-related
stuff is concerned.

After installing kde, I've changed the CHOST to "i686" and updated the gcc to 3.3.1.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
See "Details"
Actual Results:  
See "Details"

Expected Results:  
libtool should find and link the correct libraries

Just a guess - please try re-emerging libtool.

building kde-base/kdeaddons fails for this same reason.

A Request: 
Can we improve libtool's error in the case to include the path to the .la 
file or whatever told it to check the bogus path for libstdc++.so? 
Something like what gcc tells you when it can't find or has problems with and 
include file.

Meanwhile I've reinstalled my Gentoo-System because of a heavy damaged file system with the two 
1.4-CDs. So it's not longer a problem for me, but may be for other Gentoo-users.

With KDE 3.1.3, all parts seem to build other than kdeaddons so there may be a 
problem with some use of libtools there. 
 
I built my system off the 1.4rc2 cd images. I suspect any released image which 
optimizes for i686 will avoid my particular version of the problem. 

[Comment 6 Martin Schlemmer (RETIRED) 2003-09-14 11:43:17 UTC]

Could you do the following for me:

1) find /usr -type f -name '*.la' -exec grep -l 'i586-pc-linux-gnu\/3\.2\.2' {} \;

2) fix_libtool_files.sh 3.2.2 --oldarch i586-pc-linux-gnu

and attach both output here if possible.
