Hello Everyone,

I am new to RPM packaging and I am trying to package weechat for SLE12-SP3 and am facing `prhread_getspecific` error,

...

`/home/abuild/rpmbuild/BUILD/weechat-2.2/src/plugins/perl/weechat-perl.c:352: undefined reference to `pthread_getspecific'`

I searched over the internet to find the solution but I am unable to understand on how to implement this in packaging, like where to add/remove that certain flag (pthread).

Following is the pastebin for my system details, build log, spec file and other links.

[System][1] [Spec File][2] [meta prj][3] [Build log][4] [Build commands in .spec][5] [lpthread references in the code][6]

None of those.

7.) In the build description provided in the tarball (Makefile, Makefile.am, CMakeLists.txt, whatever applies).

So, I need to untar the code, make the changes and archive it again?

I hope you don't, just "%patch" it after %setup. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+owner@opensuse.org

I added one line to the spec file:

BuildRequires: glibc-devel

and it builds now.

here to see: https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/ home:lemmy04:branches:openSUSE:Backports:SLE-15/weechat

It works in SLE-15 but not in SLE-12, I wonder why?

It's just papering over the issue. glibc-devel almost always gets installed anyway because some other package already depends on it. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+owner@opensuse.org

Because the error is elsewhere. Look at the line with the command to link the plugin and you'll see that the option -lpthread preceeds the objects to be linked and that of cause fails as the libraries to be used need to follow the objects so that the linker knows what is needed before searching the libraries. Why it works in SLE 15 puzzles me though.

Thanks for the pointer, I looked a lot and found that I need to add the flags after the libraries to link but didn't know where.

change export CFLAGS="%{optflags}" to export CFLAGS="%{optflags} -pthread" and it should work.
