gettext

[Deepa Duvvuru]

I am trying to install gettext (to use with php). I build it with the following options:

CC="/usr/local/bin/gcc" ./configure --prefix=/opt/apache/htdocs/webmail/gettext

and it works fine. But when I do make, it exits with the following error:

/usr/ccs/bin/ld: Can't find library: "gcc_s"
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
*** Error exit code 1

Stop.
*** Error exit code 1

Stop.
*** Error exit code 1

Stop.
*** Error exit code 1

******

I am using version 3.3.2 of gcc. I have tried giving:

--libdir=/usr/local/lib

option to gcc, but make still fails.

Any ideas on how I can fix this?

Thanks,
Deepa

Check your environment for variables like LIBPATH, LD_LIBRARY_PATH, etc.
Can you compile other programs (from the command line, for instance) using gcc ?
You can test it with something simple like hello world...

[T G Manikandan]

Can you try using the GNU version of make

http://hpux.cs.utah.edu/hppd/hpux/Gnu/make-3.80/

[T G Manikandan · Accepted solution]

Also there is a depot available for gettext

http://hpux.cs.utah.edu/hppd/hpux/Gnu/gettext-0.12/

check the dependencies too.

I was able to compile Hello World program with gcc without any problem.

Do you check the environment variables LIBPATH, LD_LIBRARY_PATH by doing echo $LIBPATH, and echo $LD_LIBRARY_PATH?

If so, they are empty.

Thanks,

I used gmake and still get the same error:

/usr/ccs/bin/ld: Can't find library: "gcc_s"
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
gmake[3]: *** [libintl.la] Error 1
gmake[3]: Leaving directory `/opt/gettext-0.12.1/gettext-runtime/intl'

Hi

Can you post the actual line that caused this problem please. This could be caused by other libraries in the link line. The best ay to solve this is to use "chatr" command on gcc and all other libraries that is gettext is trying to link to.
Are you linking to libiconv.sl also?

for example:

chatr gcc
chatr libicnv.sl


Basically I need some more info to track the problem.

Here is my configure line ...

edison-new:/opt/gettext-0.12.1:8>CC="/usr/gcc/gcc/usr/local/bin/gcc" ./configure --prefix=/opt/gettext2


And then make ...
edison-new:/opt/gettext-0.12.1:8>make



Here's the line during make which gives the error:

/usr/gcc/gcc/usr/local/bin/gcc -shared -fPIC -Wl,+h -Wl,libintl.sl.5 -Wl,+b -Wl,/opt/gettext2/lib -o .libs/libintl.sl.5.0 .libs/bindtextdom.o .libs/dcgettext.o .libs/dgettext.o .libs/gettext.o .libs/finddomain.o .libs/loadmsgcat.o .libs/localealias.o .libs/textdomain.o .libs/l10nflist.o .libs/explodename.o .libs/dcigettext.o .libs/dcngettext.o .libs/dngettext.o .libs/ngettext.o .libs/plural.o .libs/plural-exp.o .libs/localcharset.o .libs/relocatable.o .libs/localename.o .libs/log.o .libs/osdep.o .libs/intl-compat.o -lc -lc

I copied libgcc_s to /usr/local/lib. But it still says it can't find it.

[Deepa Duvvuru]

Not sure what options I have to give to chatr, but when I do chatr gcc, here's what I get:

I don't have libicnv.sl in /usr/local/lib or /usr/gcc/gcc/usr/local/lib.

Hi

I am sorry, It was a typing mistake. I ment to write "libiconv.sl" not "libicnv.sl".

It seems your gcc is ok. (where did you get your gcc from? did you compile it yourself?).


In gettext source tree can you find "libintl.sl.5.0" and run the "chatr" on that please.

chatr libintl.sl.5.0

and post the result in here please.


Thanks

Mehdi

[Deepa Duvvuru]

I didn't compile gcc. I downloaded the precompiled binary from HP site.

I don't have "libicnv.sl" in the lib directory.

Here's the output from chatr libintl.sl.5.0:

edison-new:/opt/gettext-0.12.1/gettext-tools/intl/.libs:48>chatr libintl.sl.5.0

As TG pointed out, download a pre-compiled version - that's what I did:

http://hpux.ee.ualberta.ca/hppd/hpux/Gnu/gettext-0.12/

You may also need:
libiconv-1.9

http://hpux.ee.ualberta.ca/hppd/hpux/Development/Libraries/libiconv-1.9/


Rgds...Geoff

[Deepa Duvvuru]

I was able to compile it with cc. I would like to know why it doesn't work with gcc. I will try downloading libiconv and see whether that fixes it.

Thanks,
Deepa

Hi

The line that failed, was tha line that trying to build libintl.sl.5.0. Where did you find libintl.sl.5.0 to run the chatr on that??

Mehdi

[Deepa Duvvuru]

I did a find in the gettext source dir and I found it in this dir:

/opt/gettext-0.12.1/gettext-tools/intl/.libs
