However libSM depends in libICE: $ pkg-config --libs "sm" -lSM -lICE So -lICE is added to the libtool command line. It looks somehow inconsistent to remove an .la file when we install pkgconfig files which at the same time indicate a dependency. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=233200 ------- Comment #5 from dmueller@novell.com 2007-01-11 15:30 MST ------- yes, and your libSM isn't recompiled after you updated libICE. There are two ways to indicate a dependency. your libSM.la (wherever it is) contains a dependency on libICE.la. However, when it is recompiled, it will contain a dependeny on -lICE, like it should. and no: the libSM.la we ship does not contain a dependency on libICE.la. It should come from your system. We're building almost 2000 packages (including libXt) against libICE so this issue would have come up already otherwise ;) -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=233200 ------- Comment #8 from eich@novell.com 2007-01-12 03:58 MST ------- So what you are trying to say is that you 'make install' libICE, and remove libICE.la before you build libSM? What was the reason for removing libICE.la? What was the ticket number for the above mentioned change? (I cannot access the rpms at the moment due to #233998). -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.

The reason for removing libICE.la was that it is an unnecessary libtool file, because libICE itself doesn't have any dependencies, hence libtool can live fine without that file. Removing the file has the advantage that no package that is built against it will hardcode the location and the existance of the libICE.la, which gives developers a greater freedom in building against new packages or developing (because they no longer have to recompile all depending sources). This has been discussed on suse internal mailinglists. I think there is no bugzilla entry in particular for it, but I'm not sure. In any case there is a brp check for it and we intend to make it fatal for 10.3. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=233200 ------- Comment #10 from dmueller@novell.com 2007-01-12 04:12 MST ------- in any case I don't understand your problem. Either you want to compile only libXt: then use the suse libSM package, and your problem is gone. or you want to compile all the stack on your own, in that case compile libICE yourself as well, which will fix your problem (because then the la file is back, although in a wrong location). Or, the easiest of it all: recompile your libSM and the problem is gone as well. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=233200 ------- Comment #11 from eich@novell.com 2007-01-12 07:33 MST ------- I sometimes need to build the entire stack - but in a way that they rely upon the installed versions and without installing each package into the system. Therefore I use DESTDIR or similar tricks. The problem was that libtool found the version of libICE that was installed in DESTDIR and added the dependency but added the the path to the system library directory (probably because of --prefix=/usr). Yes, the hardcoded paths of libraries in the .la files seems to haunt a lot of people. At least I've heard several people complain about it and people are even thinking about getting rid of libtool again for X because it causes at least as many problems as it solves. In any case I managed to solve my problem by tweaking some configure and make variables. I was glad that I was able to find out how without having to obtain a deeper understanding of libtool. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.
