Bug 43130 – Koffice 1.3 compile fails at kiospell. Libtools is looking for wrong version of libstdc++.la

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED INVALID

Brief description:
libtools is trying to find  /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i586-pc-linux-gnu/3.2.2/libstdc++.la. 

There is no such file on my system. What I DO have is:
/usr/lib/gcc-lib/i686-pc-linux-gnu/3.3.2/libstdc++.la

(Please note: Architecture (i586 vs i686) and version (3.2.2 vs 3.3.2) are both different.)

This is very likely less a problem with koffice than with one of the tools, but I have no idea which one.

Possibly relevant facts: Recently did an "emerge -u system" and was originally doing this (koffice) as part of "emerge -u world". I know for certain that gcc, glibc, and bin-utils were among the things updated. I re-emerged libtool in case that was the problem. It made no difference.


Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. "emerge koffice" or "emerge -u koffice" or "emerge -u --deep koffice"
Actual Results:  
The following is the entire output of "emerge -u --deep koffice". I apologize
for the length, but since which version of the library to use is arguably
something that should be established by the configure step, I've included
everything, partly on the principle that too much info is better than too
little. (Fortunately, kiospell is fairly early in the compile.)

(Correction: After reading the preamble to the "Additional Information" section,
I'm going to add the output of the emerge as an attachment. Short version of
what happened is described above in Details.)


Expected Results:  
Used /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i686-pc-linux-gnu/3.3.2/libstdc++.la (and continued the
compile, of course!)

Output of "emerge -u --deep koffice"

[Comment 2 Caleb Tennis (RETIRED) 2004-02-28 05:34:37 UTC]

Did you run /sbin/fix_libtool_files.sh ?

[Comment 3 Charles Lacour 2004-02-28 12:28:56 UTC]

No, I hadn't. (I hadn't known it existed until your question.)

I ran it with the wrong version the first time (thought I was supposed to put in the current version, rather than the old one. For the benefit of anybody who may find this while researching a similar problem, the command that fixed it was "/sbin/fix_libtool_files.sh 3.2.2 --oldarch i586-pc-linux-gnu"
