The dependency tracker inherited by a variety of libraries, like libstdc++.la
keeps local dependencies. Since it is never installed via libtool, its
dependencies are never fixed based on the installation prefix defined at
configure. Because of this, the installed .la files point to invalid locations
for their dependencies.
An example of our build is configured as:
cd ../gcc-build/sun4x_58 && CFLAGS=-O CC=gcc sh ../../gcc-3.4.3/configure \
--datadir='${prefix}/lib' --libexecdir='${prefix}/lib' \
--sharedstatedir='${prefix}/lib' --prefix=/usr/pubsw \
--enable-threads \
--disable-multilib \
--with-gnu-as \
--with-as=/usr/pubsw/bin/as \
--with-gnu-ld \
--with-ld=/usr/pubsw/bin/ld \
--with-included-gettext \
--with-libintl-prefix=/usr/pubsw \
--with-libiconv-prefix=/usr/pubsw
It is then installed as:
cd ../gcc-build/sun4x_58 && make install
DESTDIR=/afs/.ir/pubsw/Languages/gcc-3.4.3/sun4x_58
Note that correct dependencies via .la files should look in /usr/pubsw/lib.
This however, does not appear to happen with any of the .la files that would use
it, and all the incorrect ones
