Anyhow, I am trying to compile an existing project that works fine
under
Ubuntu 8.04. I can get all of the unit to compile, but when it comes
time to
link them together into a shared library, I get the following:
Linking libproj.so
Error: Can't call the linker, switching to external linking
Fatal: There were 1 errors compiling module, stopping
Fatal: Compilation aborted
Error: /usr/local/bin/ppc386 returned an error exitcode (normal if
you did
not specify a source file to be compiled)
It's probably caused by this bug in binutils:
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=471901
It has been fixed in the mean time, but only after binutils 2.19.1 was
released (and I guess your Ubuntu comes either with 2.19 or 2.19.1 --
although the bug already existed in some 2.18.x versions as well.).
