#20498 [Opn->Bgs]: linking fails if -lexpat is added twice to the EXTRA_LIBS

ID: 20498 Updated by: iliaa@php.net Reported By: bleek@jobpilot.de -Status: Open +Status: Bogus Bug Type: Compile Failure Operating System: SuSE Linux 8.0 PHP Version: 4.3.0RC1 New Comment: Sorry, but your problem does not imply a bug in PHP itself. For a list of more appropriate places to ask for help using PHP, please visit http://www.php.net/support.php as this bug system is not the appropriate forum for asking support questions. Thank you for your interest in PHP. Given that you specify both /usr & /usr/local as the library search paths it is highly likely library confusion occurs. IMO this is not a PHP issue. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-11-22 03:43:55] bleek@jobpilot.de Yes, /usr/lib contains the original SuSE expat. But I´ve linked everything (sablotron, apache, php) with a statically build expat located in usr/local/lib. Shall I reproduce the problem making sure, that there is only my expat available? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-11-21 18:20:07] iliaa@php.net Do you have more then 1 expat library installed on your computer? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-11-19 12:32:59] bleek@jobpilot.de ./configure --with-apxs=/usr/local/bin/apxs \ --with-mysql=/usr/local \ --disable-shared \ --enable-bcmath \ --enable-ftp \ --enable-mbstring \ --enable-wddx \ --enable-xslt \ --with-expat-dir=/usr/local \ --with-gettext=/usr/local \ --with-openssl=/usr/local \ --with-imap=/usr/local \ --with-imap-ssl=/usr/local \ --with-xslt-sablot=/usr/local \ --with-zlib \ --with-zlib-dir=/usr/local \ --with-gd=/usr/local \ --with-png-dir=/usr \ --with-jpeg-dir=/usr \ make fails with lots of /home/cbleek/Sources/XML/expat/lib/xmlrole.c(.text+0x15d0): multiple definition of `XmlPrologStateInitExternalEntity' /usr/local/lib/libexpat.a(xmlrole.o)(.text+0x15d0):/home/cbleek/Sources/XML/expat/lib/xmlrole.c: first defined here After removing one "-lexpat" from the $EXTRA_LIBS in the main Makefile, compilation works fine. This error existed in the 4.2.3 too, There the config_vars.mk (or so) had to be modified. \carsten ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=20498&edit=1
