What's the actual error you see? If it's the warning about having an undefined weak reference to <some symbol>, this is usually fairly harmless. It just means that the object in question doesn't have DT_NEEDED entries for all the libraries it depends on, normally because some of these libraries are implicitly included by others and nobody has noticed that they are also used directly. libXpm is something of a favourite for this. It'd be worth filing bugs for binaries with that problem, but only at normal or minor severity. p.
