Hello,
I'm trying to package & use a static library (not mine), but it looks like
the right "-L" parameter is not automagically passed to the user package
(where the lib is in (inputs ...))
something like the following:
(define-public a (package ...))
(define-public b (package ... (inputs `(("liba" ,a))) ...))
I tried to put the right -L into make-flags & configure-flags myself, but
it failed with error, I don't even know if I have to do that :
(define-public b (package ...
(arguments
`(#:make-flags (list (string-append "LDFLAGS=-L" ,a "/lib -la"))
#:configure-flags (list (string-append "LDFLAGS=-L" ,a "/lib -la"))
this ended with:
ERROR: In procedure primitive-load:
ERROR: In procedure scm_lreadr: /gnu/store/*-guile-builder:1:5211:
Unknown # object: #\<
which is in this :
[...]
#:phases %standard-phases #:locale "en_US.utf8" #:configure-flags
(list (string-append "LDFLAGS=-L" #<package urlmatch@1.0
/home/vince/guix-packages/fifth.scm:40 503c780> "/lib -lurlmatch"))
[...]
I did find a use of static lib (apart from libgcc) in utils-linux but
nothing here seems special (even the *.a move looks optional)
Any help appreciated...
