Bug 255642 – net-dns/bind-*: bind links to old bind-internal libraries after update

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED NEEDINFO

[Description André Mayet 2009-01-20 14:39:49 UTC]

After updating bind (in this case, the update was from 9.5.x to 9.6.0, but it happened with other versions as well), the resulting executable (/usr/sbin/named) links to the old versions of dynamic libraries installed by the bind package:

ldd /usr/sbin/named
	linux-gate.so.1 =>  (0xb7f05000)
	liblwres.so.50 => /usr/lib/liblwres.so.50 (0xb7eea000)
	libdns.so.50 => /usr/lib/libdns.so.50 (0xb7d98000)
	libbind9.so.50 => /usr/lib/libbind9.so.50 (0xb7d8c000)
	libisccfg.so.50 => /usr/lib/libisccfg.so.50 (0xb7d77000)
	libcrypto.so.0.9.8 => /usr/lib/libcrypto.so.0.9.8 (0xb7c35000)
	libisccc.so.50 => /usr/lib/libisccc.so.50 (0xb7c2d000)
	libisc.so.50 => /usr/lib/libisc.so.50 (0xb7be4000)
	libnsl.so.1 => /lib/libnsl.so.1 (0xb7bce000)
	libxml2.so.2 => /usr/lib/libxml2.so.2 (0xb7aba000)
	libdl.so.2 => /lib/libdl.so.2 (0xb7ab5000)
	libz.so.1 => /lib/libz.so.1 (0xb7aa2000)
	libm.so.6 => /lib/libm.so.6 (0xb7a7e000)
	libc.so.6 => /lib/libc.so.6 (0xb794c000)
	/lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0xb7f06000)
	libdns.so.43 => not found
	libisccc.so.40 => not found
	libisc.so.44 => not found

The new versions of these libraries are installed (and linked also), but of course this is plain wrong.

Without diagnosing this further, I'd presume that bind (one of its Makefiles) does not specify a linker path for finding the shared libraries to link against, and as such picks up the installed libraries on compilation.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Have an old(er) version of bind installed
2. emerge --oneshot -v bind
3. ldd /usr/sbin/named

Actual Results:  
Bind also links to old system libraries after completing the update (see above).

Expected Results:  
Bind links only to new versions of the bind internal libraries, such as libisc.so, etc.

Workaround: Remerging bind after the initial update correctly installs a version which only links against the new versions of the libraries.

Can't reproduce here, please try it with "scanelf -n" instead of ldd.
