Igor Galić created TS-2334:
------------------------------
Summary: --with-tcmalloc does not test whether the "found" library
actually exists
Key: TS-2334
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TS-2334
Project: Traffic Server
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Build
Reporter: Igor Galić
Our {{TS_CHECK_TCMALLOC}} does not work.
I found this when compiling --with-tcmalloc on Ubuntu, where the {{tcmalloc}}
library is called {{tcmalloc_minimal}}. (And its corresponding -dev package,
will, intuitively be named {{libgoogle-perftools-dev}}. )
But none of this actually matters. I don't need to have any tcmalloc libraries
installed for this to fail horribly: {{-ltcmalloc}} will be added to the build
simply because I specified {{--with-tcmalloc}} this causes pretty much
everything in the configure run to break, or at least run with defaults. (e.g.:
glibc2 is not recognized to have a reentrant {{gethostbyname()}})
proposal: ACTUALLY check if {{tcmalloc}} can be found, abort {{configure}} if
it can't.
