Bug 73622 – courier-authlib: cannot build: "ld: unrecognized option '-DHAVE_ERRNO_AS_DEFINE=1'" - error in mysql_config?

• Status: RESOLVED INVALID
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Alexander Skwar 2004-12-06 21:28:59 UTC]

When I try to compile courier-authlib-0.50.20041203, I fail with these errors:

i686-pc-linux-gnu-gcc: -DHAVE_ERRNO_AS_DEFINE=1: linker input file unused because linking not done

!!! ERROR: net-libs/courier-authlib-0.50.20041203 failed.

As suggested by bug #73513, or rather bug #70367, I changed in /etc/make.conf

  LDFLAGS="-Wl,-O1"

to

  LDFLAGS="-O1"

and appended to CFLAGS the value "-Wl,O1".

After that change, I have recompiled mysql.

[Comment 1 Tuan Van (RETIRED) 2004-12-06 21:43:31 UTC]

did you try LDFLAGS="-Wl,-O1" and leave it out of your CFLAGS?

[Comment 2 Alexander Skwar 2004-12-06 21:50:25 UTC]

No, I did not try LDFLAGS="-Wl,-O1", because that's a wrong syntax, isn't it? Well, with LDFLAGS=-Wl,-O1, I'll get bug #73513, won't I? :)

Hmm...

06:49:32 askwar@alturo:~ $ mysql_config --cflags
-I/usr/include/mysql -march=pentium4 -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer -Wl,-DHAVE_ERRNO_AS_DEFINE=1 -DUSE_OLD_FUNCTIONS

Hm, why is there -Wl,-DHAVE.... in the output?

In mysql_config:

cflags="-I$pkgincludedir -march=pentium4 -O2 -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer -Wl,-O1 -DHAVE_ERRNO_AS_DEFINE=1 -DUSE_OLD_FUNCTIONS " #note: end space!

[Comment 3 Tuan Van (RETIRED) 2004-12-06 21:50:40 UTC]

err, I mean LDFLAGS="-O1"

[Comment 4 Alexander Skwar 2004-12-06 21:53:24 UTC]

Ah :)

Yes, here's directly from my make.conf:

CHOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu"
CFLAGS="-march=pentium4 -O2 -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer -Wl,-O1"
CXXFLAGS="-fomit-frame-pointer -pipe -O2 -march=pentium4"

LDFLAGS="-O1"


I added -Wl,-O1 to CFLAGS, because bug #70367 explained, that this is the correct syntax, isn't it?

[Comment 5 Tuan Van (RETIRED) 2004-12-06 22:01:55 UTC]

I am not a linker guru, I just pass on what I have read ;)
see bug #65002
try with CFLAGS="-march=pentium4 -O2 -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer".
I don't think it is a good idea to have -Wl,-O1 in your CFLAGS and LDFLAGS="-O1" (it confuses the linker?), LDFLAGS="-O1" should do what you want.

[Comment 6 Alexander Skwar 2004-12-07 01:28:53 UTC]

Yes, you're right. Now courier-authlib compiles just fine. Thanks!
