Re: Compilation error of xorriso on MacOSX

[Yves Blusseau]

Hi,

when i've tried to compile xorriso on MacOSX 10.6.2
i have this error during
the link:
Undefined symbols:
  "_history_list", referenced from:
       _Xorriso_status in xorriso_xorriso-xorriso.o
...
If i add #undef Xorriso_with_readlinE to xorriso.c, i can compile it.

It looks as if the installed libreadline
does not provide function history_list().
I will try to add a check for this to the
configure script.


There are options for ./configure by which one
can disable libreadline and some other extra
dependencies:
     --disable-libreadline
     --disable-zlib     avoid use of zlib functions like compress2()
     --disable-libacl   avoid use of ACL functions like acl_to_text()
     --disable-xattr    avoid use of xattr functions like listxattr()

They all get disabled automatically by configure
tests if the facility is missing at all.
But here we have a case were it is missing
only in part.
The ACL and xattr stuff is currently Linux-only.
One would probably need a system adapter layer
to make this available on other OSes.

I have the latest readline library (6.1) installed on my MacOSX (from MacPorts): lrwxr-xr-x 1 root admin 21 Jan 17 02:09 /opt/local/lib/libreadline.5.0.dylib -> libreadline.6.1.dylib lrwxr-xr-x 1 root admin 21 Jan 17 02:09 /opt/local/lib/libreadline.5.1.dylib -> libreadline.6.1.dylib lrwxr-xr-x 1 root admin 21 Jan 17 02:09 /opt/local/lib/libreadline.5.2.dylib -> libreadline.6.1.dylib -rwxr-xr-x 2 root admin 248168 Jan 17 02:09 /opt/local/lib/libreadline.6.1.dylib lrwxr-xr-x 1 root admin 21 Jan 17 02:09 /opt/local/lib/libreadline.6.dylib -> libreadline.6.1.dylib lrwxr-xr-x 1 root admin 21 Jan 17 02:09 /opt/local/lib/libreadline.dylib -> libreadline.6.1.dylib But i think configure have tried to use the one in the standard path (/usr/lib): lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 15 Dec 26 14:03 /usr/lib/libreadline.dylib -> libedit.2.dylib Perhaps i can use an option of configure or environnement variable to "force" the linker to use the version in /opt/local/lib instead of /usr/lib ?
