Package: cpufrequtils
Version: 0.4-1
Severity: important
Hi,
Your package is failing to build on amd64 with the following
error:
x86_64-linux-gnu-gcc -shared .libs/cpufreq.o .libs/sysfs.o .libs/proc.o
-lsysfs -Wl,-soname -Wl,libcpufreq.so.0 -o .libs/libcpufreq.so.0.0.0
/usr/bin/ld:
/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-linux-gnu/4.0.3/../../../../lib64/libsysfs.a(libsysfs_la-sy+sfs_utils.o):
relocation R_X86_64_32 against `a local symbol' can not be used when making a
shared object; recompile with -fPIC
/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-linux-gnu/4.0.3/../../../../lib64/libsysfs.a: could not
read symbols: Bad value
It's linking against the static libsysfs.a instead of against the
shared libsysfs.so.
This is caused by this change in libtool.m4 (which is in
all the aclocal.m4's):
+ # Find out which ABI we are using (multilib Linux x86_64 hack).
+ libsuff=
+ case "$host_cpu" in
+ x86_64*)
+ echo '[#]line __oline__ "configure"' > conftest.$ac_ext
+ if AC_TRY_EVAL(ac_compile); then
+ case `/usr/bin/file conftest.$ac_objext` in
+ *64-bit*)
+ libsuff=64
+ ;;
+ esac
+ fi
+ rm -rf conftest*
+ ;;
+ *)
+ ;;
+ esac
+ sys_lib_dlsearch_path_spec="/lib${libsuff} /usr/lib${libsuff}"
+ sys_lib_search_path_spec="/lib${libsuff} /usr/lib${libsuff}
/usr/local/lib${libsuff}"
This seems to be coming from a gentoo version of libtool.
After removing that from libcpufreq/aclocal.m4 and regenerating
the auto* files, it builds without problems.
