--- Comment #9 from Werner Dittmann 2007-11-19 06:35:10 MST ---
I found some libraries in the system (not part of openSUSE) that referenced the
libgcrypt.la file in their own .la files. They were built with CVS or tar
releases of libgcrypt downloaded from the gnupg site (because of some fixes not
contained in the openSUSE distri at that point in time).
The ./configure; make; make install of libgcrypt automatically installs the .la
file. Thus these other libraries that require libgcrypt contain the reference
to libgcrypt.la.
If you now install the libgcrypt from the new openSUSE distribution (because it
now has the newer libgcrypt) and you uninstall the "private" libgcrypt then you
are in trouble :-) . You need to identify all other libs that were previously
built with the "private" libgcrypt and rebuild them to get rid of that
reference
I'll contact the developers/maintainers of these libraries to take care of
this.
Maybe it would be a good hint in some howto to point out not to install the .la
files with "make install" if not absolutely necessary.
BTW, the exact error message is:
..
sed: cannot open /usr/lib64/libgcrypt.la - no such file
..
this error message is embedded in the libtool output.
Its ok to close this topic.
Thanks very much for your help and patience.
