Problem with configuration

Hello,

 

I am trying to configure Kaffe version xxxxxx

 

I have downloaded the library libtool from  

http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/libtool/libtool-2.2.4.tar.gz

     and installed in /usr/local/lib, /usr/local/include

 

My /usr/local/lib  looks like this:

[27] ../libtool/libtool-2.2.4 : ls /usr/local/lib

libltdl.a   libltdl.so.7      libts-0.0.so.0.1.1  libts.so

libltdl.la  libltdl.so.7.1.2  libts.a             pkgconfig

libltdl.so  libts-0.0.so.0    libts.la            ts

 

 

I have specified the include and library path in configure

e.g: ./configure --prefix=/usr/local --build=i386-linux --host=arm-linux --with-includes="/usr/local/include" --with-libraries="/usr/local/lib"

 

I am getting the following error  :

 

checking dynamic linker characteristics... GNU/Linux ld.so

checking how to hardcode library paths into programs... immediate

checking ltdl.h usability... yes

checking ltdl.h presence... yes

checking for ltdl.h... yes

checking for library containing lt_dlcaller_register... no

configure: error: Can't find the libltdl library.

 

I went to /usr/local/lib and ran the nm command against each library (object) file. The nm command shows the symbols in an object file. None of the libraries contained a lt_dllcaller_register symbol.

 

I then searched the libtool archive for any mention of lt_dlcaller_register. The file named ChangeLog.2005 says that lt_dlcaller_register was renamed, and the file named NEWS says it was a deprecated API and was removed.

 

So, it looks like the Kaffe configure script is referencing a deprecated API in the libltdl library. Is that correct?

 

Please suggest how to make the configure work properly.

 

Thanks,

DP

Hi Debashish,

>I have downloaded the library libtool from

I was encountered same problem recently for newly installed environment.
The checking for libtool invokes some deprecated functions, and you
have to install some 1.5.x (I did with 1.5.26) of libtool rather than
2.2.x series.

Hope this may help.

Of course, if you don't put your old (v1.5 series) libltdl in your library
search path, the configure can not find this library. While configuring,
you have to supply proper directory lists (separated by colon) to
--with-includes, and --with-libraries.

And also, seeing 'config.log' may help you to solve what's wrong to
detect existing libraries.

Kiyo
