I get these errors libtool: link: unable to infer tagged configuration libtool: link: specify a tag with `--tag'
after this line in the makefile output: ./libtool --mode=link g++-3.3 -o test1 -g AbstractTimeStepsGenerator.o # files omitted Specification_samples.o Model_helpers.o Rstub.o -lboost_unit_test_framework I have done export CXX=g++-3.3 I'm on Debian testing, which is currently transitioning to G++ 4.0. 4.0 is my default compiler. Since I recently reran autoconf and configure, I think they are setup for it. The boost libraries, on the other hand, were built with 3.3, and link to a different version of libstdc++ (5.0 vs 6.0). This only matters for build targets that include the unit test framework (since it has binary libraries as well as headers). However, I get the same errors reported above when building a target that doesn't use -lboost_unit_test_framework. Before I set CXX I was able to get some things to work. Narrowly, can anyone shed any light on the errors reported at the top? In particular, what do I need to reconfigure to make them go away? Do I need to rerun autoconf? configure? something else? More broadly, if you have any advice about dealing with this situation, I would appreciate it. I am trying to develop a package that will build in a variety of environments, and so may want to switch compilers and libraries even after things settle down. I could pull a newer version of boost in, but that would also "upgrade" G++ 4 to a version with release-critical bugs. I'm not particularly eager to do so, even though the newer version if built with G++ 4.0. -- Ross Boylan wk: (415) 514-8146 185 Berry St #5700 [EMAIL PROTECTED] Dept of Epidemiology and Biostatistics fax: (415) 514-8150 University of California, San Francisco San Francisco, CA 94107-1739 hm: (415) 550-1062 _______________________________________________ http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/libtool
