Hi all,

not sure if this is the correct fedora mailing list or not to bring this up on...

I came across a build error on X64, in F-11

I have been seeing this exact bug report my other distso users that have been building my
package on other distro x64 platforms, and so far I do not know what the solution might
be.

When i do a libtool build on a library, I am seeing the following:

/bin/sh ../libtool --tag=CC   --mode=link gcc  -O2 -g -pipe -Wall -Wp,-D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2
- -fexceptions -fstack-protector --param=ssp-buffer-size=4 -m64 -mtune=generic

`_start':
(.text+0x20): undefined reference to `main'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

ld is not treating this as a shared library, rather it is treating this as a main
program.

Anyone else see this ?

any ideas as to what i'm doing wrong, or what I might do to fix this ?

For what it's worth, this exact package, and this exact libtool line builds correctly
on
F-10 and ALL other earlier revs (F-9, F-8, F-7, F-6, etc. etc...) on X64 (and other
platforms...)

If this is not the right mailing list to bring this up on, please point me at a more
proper list!

 :)

All the best,

- -Greg

fedora-devel-list may be better, CC'ing it.

The F-11 tree has libtool-2.2.6, instead of libtool-1.5 as in Fedora 10 and
earlier. I suspect that's what's tripping you up.

There were people who had done mass rebuilds with the new libtool - they might
be able to point out common problems are and what the fixes are.

I actually am subscribed to fedora-devel-list, and my first inclination was to post to
THAT list, but my post never showed up (and neither did your cross post reply).

Any idea on THAT ?

All the best,

I don't see your post there, but Bill's reply made it:
