Link stage of libip6t_NETMAP failed since recently. CCLD libip6t_NETMAP.so /usr/lib64/gcc/x86_64-suse-linux/4.7/../../../../x86_64-suse-linux/bin/ld: cannot find -lip6tc libip6t_NETMAP.c uses the "ipv6_prefix_length" function from libip6tc.so; "-lip6tc" is used in the Makefile, but, the directory to it is not specified. Why does the link succeed for some people? Because /usr/lib(64)/libip6tc.so satisfies -lip6tc, but not all environments, especially those without iptables development files, have that file, hence this link error can happen. By suggestion of Mike Frysinger, this patch uses libtool to produce and link the plugins. Signed-off-by: Jan Engelhardt <jengelh@xxxxxxx> --- Like this? We cannot really get rid of mentioning .libs without involving libltdl, and there I really do not want to go. If you ask me, we should just move ipv6_prefix_length into libxtables. extensions/GNUmakefile.in | 16 ++++++++++------ 1 file changed, 10 insertions(+), 6 deletions(-) diff --git a/extensions/GNUmakefile.in b/extensions/GNUmakefile.in index e71e3ff..6020ff6 100644 --- a/extensions/GNUmakefile.in +++ b/extensions/GNUmakefile.in @@ -33,6 +33,7 @@ AM_VERBOSE_CXX = @echo " CXX " $@; AM_VERBOSE_CXXLD = @echo " CXXLD " $@; AM_VERBOSE_AR = @echo " AR " $@; AM_VERBOSE_GEN = @echo " GEN " $@; +AM_VERBOSE_NULL = @ endif # @@ -75,7 +76,7 @@ install: ${targets_install} if test -n "${targets_install}"; then install -pm0755 $^ "${DESTDIR}${xtlibdir}/"; fi; clean: - rm -f *.o *.oo *.so *.a {matches,targets}.man initext.c initext4.c initext6.c; + rm -f *.la *.o *.lo *.so *.a {matches,targets}.man initext.c initext4.c initext6.c; rm -f .*.d .*.dd; distclean: clean @@ -89,11 +90,14 @@ init%.o: init%.c # # Shared libraries # -lib%.so: lib%.oo - ${AM_VERBOSE_CCLD} ${CCLD} ${AM_LDFLAGS} -shared ${LDFLAGS} -o $@ $< -L../libxtables/.libs -lxtables ${$*_LIBADD}; +lib%.so: lib%.la + ${AM_VERBOSE_NULL} ln -fs .libs/$@ $@; -lib%.oo: ${srcdir}/lib%.c - ${AM_VERBOSE_CC} ${CC} ${AM_CPPFLAGS} ${AM_DEPFLAGS} ${AM_CFLAGS} -D_INIT=lib$*_init -DPIC -fPIC ${CFLAGS} -o $@ -c $<; +lib%.la: lib%.lo + ${AM_VERBOSE_CCLD} ../libtool ${AM_LIBTOOL_SILENT} --tag=CC --mode=link ${CCLD} ${AM_LDFLAGS} -module ${LDFLAGS} -o $@ $< -L../libxtables -lxtables ${$*_LIBADD} -rpath ${xtlibdir}; + +lib%.lo: ${srcdir}/lib%.c + ${AM_VERBOSE_CC} ../libtool ${AM_LIBTOOL_SILENT} --tag=CC --mode=compile ${CC} ${AM_CPPFLAGS} ${AM_DEPFLAGS} ${AM_CFLAGS} -D_INIT=lib$*_init ${CFLAGS} -o $@ -c $<; libxt_NOTRACK.so: libxt_CT.so ln -fs $< $@ @@ -101,7 +105,7 @@ libxt_state.so: libxt_conntrack.so ln -fs $< $@ # Need the LIBADDs in iptables/Makefile.am too for libxtables_la_LIBADD -ip6t_NETMAP_LIBADD = -lip6tc +ip6t_NETMAP_LIBADD = ../libiptc/libip6tc.la xt_RATEEST_LIBADD = -lm xt_statistic_LIBADD = -lm -- 1.7.10.4 -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netfilter-devel" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
