Bug ID: 65155 Summary: libgomp-plugin-host_nonshm installation failure Product: gcc Version: 5.0 Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P3 Component: libgomp Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org Reporter: dje at gcc dot gnu.org CC: jakub at gcc dot gnu.org Installation of libgomp-plugin-host_nonshm fails because of relinking. libgomp-plugin-host_nonshm.la contains a "relink" command because libtool is invoked with --tag disatable-static. However, the plugin somehow is in use during the linking process. libtool: relink: /home/dje/build/20150218/./gcc/xgcc -B/home/dje/build/20150218/./gcc/ -B/home/dje/install/powerpc-ibm-aix7.1.2.0-20150218/powerpc-ibm-aix7.1.2.0/bin/ -B/home/dje/install/powerpc-ibm-aix7.1.2.0-20150218/powerpc-ibm-aix7.1.2.0/lib/ -isystem /home/dje/install/powerpc-ibm-aix7.1.2.0-20150218/powerpc-ibm-aix7.1.2.0/include -isystem /home/dje/install/powerpc-ibm-aix7.1.2.0-20150218/powerpc-ibm-aix7.1.2.0/sys-include -shared -o .libs/libgomp-plugin-host_nonshm.so.1 .libs/libgomp_plugin_host_nonshm_la-plugin-host.o -Wl,-blibpath:/home/dje/install/powerpc-ibm-aix7.1.2.0-20150218/lib:/home/dje/build/20150218/./gcc:/usr/lib:/lib -L/home/dje/install/powerpc-ibm-aix7.1.2.0-20150218/lib -lgomp -lpthread -ldl -lc -Wl,-bnoentry -pthread -Wl,-bE:.libs/libgomp-plugin-host_nonshm.exp -Wl,-berok ld: 0711-851 SEVERE ERROR: Output file: .libs/libgomp-plugin-host_nonshm.so.1 The file is in use and cannot be overwritten. collect2: error: ld returned 12 exit status I am not sure how the plugin shared object is being referenced, but that seems like a bug. Possible solutions: 1) Don't reference the shared object unnecessarily. 2) Don't generate relink command for libtool 3) Ignore relink command on AIX (like cygwin?) 4) Relink should delete shared object before trying to regenerate it.
