As an experiment, I am attempting to build a more recent version of GNOME than 2.16.0 on CentOS 5.1. I've tried both garnome and jhbuild, and neither one works quite right. Jhbuild blows out looking for a dbus-glib-1 revision >= 0/74 (the release rev is 0.70), so I downloaded that and tried to build it. This results in the following error: gcc -g -O2 -Wall -Wchar-subscripts -Wmissing-declarations -Wmissing-prototypes -Wnested-externs -Wpointer-arith -Wcast-align -Wfloat-equal -Wsign-compare -o .libs/dbus-binding-tool dbus-binding-tool-glib.o dbus-glib-tool.o ./.libs/libdbus-gtool.a -L/lib64 ./.libs/libdbus-glib-1.so -ldbus-1 -lgobject-2.0 -lglib-2.0 /usr/lib/libexpat.so -lnsl /usr/lib/libexpat.so: could not read symbols: File in wrong format collect2: ld returned 1 exit status make[4]: *** [dbus-binding-tool] Error 1 make[4]: Leaving directory `/home/mhr/Download/dbus-glib-0.74/dbus' make[3]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 make[3]: Leaving directory `/home/mhr/Download/dbus-glib-0.74/dbus' make[2]: *** [all] Error 2 make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/mhr/Download/dbus-glib-0.74/dbus' make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/mhr/Download/dbus-glib-0.74' make: *** [all] Error 2 When I try to use garnome, it eventually runs into exactly the same error. I've checked /usr/lib/libexpat.so, and this is what I get: $ ls -l /usr/lib/libexpat.so lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 27 Jan 8 13:11 /usr/lib/libexpat.so -> ../../lib/libexpat.so.0.5.0 $ ls -l /lib/libexpat.so.0.5.0 -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 133056 Jan 6 2007 /lib/libexpat.so.0.5.0 $ file /lib/libexpat.so.0.5.0 /lib/libexpat.so.0.5.0: ELF 32-bit LSB shared object, Intel 80386, version 1 (SYSV), stripped When I look at this library with nm, lld and objdump, they all seem to be able to read it just fine. There is also the 64 bit version that lives in /ib64 and has a .ink from /usr/lib64, and that also reads fine. What did I miss here?

Howdy, Just a thought, do you have the expat-devel package installed? Thanks, Finnur _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@xxxxxxxxxx http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
