I am seeing the same error during install with linking with both 1.7.0 and 1.7.1

[Comment 2 Thomas Sachau 2011-12-16 23:19:19 UTC]

Any update here?

i would like to add, that this new build system is not parallel-build save, i today tried building 1.7.1 and during the first run it failed, because a cp did not find the source file, with MAKEOPTS="-j1" it does again get to the linking with the already mentioned error.

[Comment 3 Thomas Sachau 2012-01-07 01:13:20 UTC]

After some more testing, looking at the build.log and the configure options, i have at least some workaround. The build system uses by default the no-undefined flag for LDFLAGS. This results in the failure with related message.

As a workaround, it has a configure switch called "--disable-disallowing-of-undefined-references", which does remove the flag from LDFLAGS and allows me to cross-compile subversion with multilib-portage. So here are the issues with subversion-1.7.*:

-no parallel build support
-linking issue with --no-undefined LDFLAG (default enabled in the build system)

I have not fully tested the 32bit version, so i cannot say, if this switch does cause any harm or if the resulting files may fail in some way.

[Comment 4 Thomas Sachau 2012-01-08 02:36:15 UTC]

On another note:

After i installed subversion-1.7*, the following cross-compile runs fine, so it seems to link against currently installed version instead of the actually compiled version, which causes the undefined symbols in the first place.

[Comment 5 Thomas Sachau 2012-03-11 15:42:09 UTC]

Resolved with 1.7.4, should be on your local rsync mirror in a few hours.
