Hi guys,
Looking at the texinfo build log I stumbled over the following difference between the x86 and the arm build:
###### x86 ######
checking for tgetent in -lncurses... yes checking for library with termcap variables... checking ncurses/termcap.h usability... yes checking ncurses/termcap.h presence... yes checking for ncurses/termcap.h... yes
###### ARM ######
checking for tgetent in -lncurses... no checking for tgetent in -lcurses... no checking for tgetent in -ltermlib... no checking for tgetent in -ltermcap... no checking for tgetent in -lterminfo... no configure: WARNING: probably need a terminal library, one of: ncurses curses termlib termcap terminfo checking for library with termcap variables...
The build failure in the ARM package seems to be related:
terminal.o: In function `terminal_goto_xy': /home/abuild/rpmbuild/BUILD/texinfo-4.13/info/terminal.c:235: undefined reference to `tgoto'
If anyone is searching for a (potential) low hanging fruit, I hope this is one :). It is not an emulation bug btw - the native build fails the exact same way.
Hrm, this one seem to stretch a bit further. There are more packages which seem to fail because of ncurses/termcap breakage: telnet, xterm, xorg-x11, probably others The offending change is the following: + 1321444800 werner@suse.de - Split libncurses(w) into libncurses(w)+libtinfo to be able to + link python against wide libncursesw and libreadline which is + linked with libtinfo only (bnc#729226) which makes sense, as the build complains about it: /usr/lib/gcc/armv7l-suse-linux-gnueabi/4.6/../../../../armv7l-suse-linux-gnueabi/bin/ld: xrestop.o: undefined reference to symbol 'halfdelay' /usr/lib/gcc/armv7l-suse-linux-gnueabi/4.6/../../../../armv7l-suse-linux-gnueabi/bin/ld: note: 'halfdelay' is defined in DSO /lib/libtinfo.so.5 so try adding it to the linker command line Anyone got an idea why it works for x86_64 but breaks on ARM?
