When doing a uClibc static build, the build fails to link:
http://autobuild.buildroot.org/results/503/50314716a9f72e8bb238e52e9dc342c68f7e0b8b/build-end.log
The cause is due to:
- xfsprogs links dome programs with util-linux' libblkid
- util-linux' libblkid is linked to util-linux' libuuid
- util-linux' libuuid uses i18n functions when locales are enabled
- uClibc does not provide i18n functions
- i18n functions are provided by libintl from libintl from gettext
util-linux installs pkg-config files for thos two libs. However,
xfsprogs does not use pkg-config to find libblkid or libuuid, thus it
misses the Libs.private field from libuid.
In this case, it is necessary to pass LIBS=-lintl at configure time, so
that configure correctly finds libblkid.
Still, this is not enough, because the build will not use LIBS during
the link phase.
We fix that last bit by adding EXTRALIBS to the libraries to link with,
so that it is possible to pass EXTRALIBS=-lintl at build time:
$ ./configure [...] LIBS=-lintl
$ make EXTRALIBS=-lintl
