I'm having some problems compiling/linking a 32-bit application on my
Opteron (x86_64) box that is currently running Fedora 11 (with both
64- and 32-bit dev libs installed). Compilation works perfectly for
the 64-bit version, but not the 32-bit. System runs gcc 4.4.1. Code is
actually FORTRAN (using gfortran as compiler), but that isn't the
issue. I also note that it all worked fine under Fedora 9 - I could
built 32- and 64-bit apps without a problem.
Here is the compilation sequence (which again works perfectly for
64-bit).
1. compile Linpack library. Here is the makefile
COMPILER = gfortran
COPTIONS = -c -m32 -O2
Linpack.a:
$(COMPILER) $(COPTIONS) *.f
ar q Linpack.a *.o
What about looking what the 'Linpack.a' is ? There are many commands
for this like 'file', 'readelf' etc.
gfortran *.o -o mms1 -L/home/me/Desktop/linMMS1/src-gfortran-6.x
-lLinpack
/usr/bin/ld: skipping incompatible
/home/me/Desktop/linMMS1/src-gfortran-6.x/libLinpack.a when searching
for -lLinpack
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lLinpack
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make: *** [mms1] Error 1
Well, the library libLinpack.a is definitely there, and was compiled
with -m32, so I'm not sure at all what the problem is - especically,
why it is incompatible.
Barely trusting something being what is expected is not wise when a
simple command would tell the truth...
As noted, this problem only happens when I try 32-bit compilation. I
tried adding -m32 to the linker call ($(LINKER) -m32 *.o -o mms1
-L/home/me/Desktop/linMMS1/src-gfortran-6.x -lLinpack), but that
didn't change a thing. But, it did generate a new error message:
gfortran -m32 *.o -o mms1 -L/home/me/Desktop/linMMS1/src-gfortran-6.x
-lLinpack
/usr/bin/ld: crt1.o: No such file: No such file or directory
Are you sure that your "Fedora 11 (with both 64- and 32-bit dev libs
installed)" isn't bullshit? Does the '/usr/lib' have the same required
development files like 'crt1.o' as the '/usr/lib64' ?
Maybe your first link without '-m32' found the 64-bit stuff and then saw
the 32-bit 'libLinpack.a' being incompatible with them...
