I'm trying to build svn from sources on my x86-64 machine and get: cd subversion/libsvn_subr && /bin/sh /gcc/gcc/subversion-1.2.3/libtool --tag=CC --silent --mode=link gcc -g -O2 -g -O2 -pthread -DNEON_ZLIB -rpath /usr/local/lib -o libsvn_subr-1.la auth.lo cmdline.lo config.lo config_auth.lo config_file.lo config_win.lo ctype.lo date.lo error.lo hash.lo io.lo lock.lo md5.lo opt.lo path.lo pool.lo quoprint.lo sorts.lo stream.lo subst.lo svn_base64.lo svn_string.lo target.lo time.lo utf.lo utf_validate.lo validate.lo version.lo xml.lo /gcc/gcc/subversion-1.2.3/apr-util/libaprutil-0.la -lgdbm -ldb-4.2 -lexpat /gcc/gcc/subversion-1.2.3/apr/libapr-0.la -lrt -lm -lcrypt -lnsl -lpthread -ldl /usr/lib/libgdbm.so: could not read symbols: Invalid operation collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
The problem is that /usr/lib/libgdbm is a 32-bit file. It should be using /usr/lib64 and ld should know that. But it looks like something is short-circuiting stuff. Does anybody know enough about svn build procedures to know how to fix this?
