Ahhh, now I got it. You're not trying to compile Ceph, you're trying
to build software using librados.
The problem here is that whatever our autoconf setup detects, and
whatever libraries it decides to use, might not be available at the
time the external software using librados is compiles. That is, Ceph
compilation environment is different from the end user compilation
environment.
And, even more so, we don't use the autoconfig results at all in the
include files; nothing defines __CEPH__ in this case.
18 #ifdef __CEPH__
19 # include "acconfig.h"
20 #endif
So when atomic.h says:
23 #ifndef NO_ATOMIC_OPS
24 //libatomic_ops implementation
25 #include <atomic_ops.h>
26 namespace ceph {
27
Yup, that'll fail if you don't have atomic-ops development libraries
available.
And even if it compiles, there's no quarantee it works right! Because
what if the actual Ceph compilation really was *without* atomic-ops.
I need to file a few more bug reports next, but after that I'll look
into this more and try to come up with a better recommendation.
Short term, your best bet is to try to match the environment where the
Deb was compiled; install the packages listed on the Build-Depends
line at
http://ceph.newdream.net/git/?p=ceph.git;a=blob;f=debian/control;hb=HEAD
-- you can do that quickly with "sudo apt-get build-dep ceph"
