Hi, I've gotten a bunch of FTBFSes for cernlib 2003.09.03-4 which I assume are related to the new X release. The problem is that when linking a program with these flags,
g77 -g -o kxterm -O2 -funroll-loops -fno-automatic -fno-second-underscore \ -fugly-complex -L/build/buildd/cernlib-2003.09.03/src/lib kxterm.o \ libkxtlib.a /build/buildd/cernlib-2003.09.03/build/packlib/libpacklib.a \ -L/build/buildd/cernlib-2003.09.03/shlib \ -L/build/buildd/cernlib-2003.09.03/lib -L/usr/X11R6/lib -lXm -lXt -lXp \ -lXext -lX11 -lnsl -lcrypt -ldl -lg2c I get the following error: /usr/bin/ld: warning: libICE.so.6, needed by /usr/lib/gcc-lib/ia64-linux/3.3.3/../../../libXm.so, not found (try using -rpath or -rpath-link) /usr/X11R6/lib/libSM.so.6: undefined reference to `IceSetShutdownNegotiation' /usr/X11R6/lib/libSM.so.6: undefined reference to `_IceErrorBadLength' /usr/X11R6/lib/libSM.so.6: undefined reference to `_IceReadSkip' /usr/X11R6/lib/libSM.so.6: undefined reference to `IceCloseConnection' /usr/X11R6/lib/libXt.so: undefined reference to `IceConnectionNumber' /usr/X11R6/lib/libSM.so.6: undefined reference to `_IceErrorBadValue' /usr/X11R6/lib/libSM.so.6: undefined reference to `_IceTransGetPeerNetworkId' /usr/X11R6/lib/libXt.so: undefined reference to `IceProcessMessages' /usr/X11R6/lib/libSM.so.6: undefined reference to `IceLastSentSequenceNumber' /usr/X11R6/lib/libSM.so.6: undefined reference to `IceAllocScratch' /usr/X11R6/lib/libSM.so.6: undefined reference to `_IceErrorBadMinor' /usr/X11R6/lib/libSM.so.6: undefined reference to `IceFlush' /usr/X11R6/lib/libSM.so.6: undefined reference to `_IcePoMagicCookie1Proc' /usr/X11R6/lib/libSM.so.6: undefined reference to `_IcePaMagicCookie1Proc' /usr/X11R6/lib/libSM.so.6: undefined reference to `_IceRead' /usr/X11R6/lib/libSM.so.6: undefined reference to `_IceErrorBadState' /usr/X11R6/lib/libSM.so.6: undefined reference to `IceRegisterForProtocolReply' /usr/X11R6/lib/libSM.so.6: undefined reference to `IceOpenConnection' /usr/X11R6/lib/libSM.so.6: undefined reference to `_IceWrite' /usr/X11R6/lib/libSM.so.6: undefined reference to `IceProtocolSetup' /usr/X11R6/lib/libSM.so.6: undefined reference to `IceRegisterForProtocolSetup' /usr/X11R6/lib/libSM.so.6: undefined reference to `IceProtocolShutdown' collect2: ld returned 1 exit status Error: kxterm not executable make[6]: *** [kxterm] Error 1 This always worked before (with X 4.2.1-xx). So, a few questions: 1) To fix this, the only thing I should have to do is change my linker flags as below, is that correct? -L/usr/X11R6/lib -lXm -lXt -lXp -lXext -lX11 -lSM -lICE -lXpm -lnsl -lcrypt -ldl -lg2c ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ added flags ---------------------------------------' 2) Will this cause any problems with backwards compatibility for X <= 4.2.1-xx (e.g. for woody backports)? Presumably there was some reason that earlier, these extra libs were only required on powerpc? 3) Do I need to Build-Depend on any additional X packages other than xlibs-dev now? 4) less important for practical purposes, but I'm curious: what changed? Also, if there is a FAQ regarding this for which I should RTFM, let me know. thanks and regards, -- Kevin B.
