Hadoop native failes to compile when default linker option is -Wl,--as-needed -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: HADOOP-7868 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-7868 Project: Hadoop Common Issue Type: Bug Components: native Affects Versions: 0.23.0, 0.20.205.0 Environment: Ubuntu Precise, Ubuntu Oneiric, Debian Unstable Reporter: James Page Recent releases of Ubuntu and Debian have switched to using --as-needed as default when linking binaries. As a result the AC_COMPUTE_NEEDED_DSO fails to find the required DSO names during execution of configure resulting in a build failure. Explicitly using -Wl,--no-as-needed in this macro when required resolves this issue.
