PHP 4.0 Bug #8862 Updated: libtool does not code runpath into libphp4.so

ID: 8862 Updated by: sniper Reported By: strube@physik3.gwdg.de Old-Status: Open Status: Suspended Bug Type: *Install and Config Assigned To: Comments: It's libtool which drops the runpaths when building shared libraries. So this report is suspended until libtool is changed to support it. --Jani Previous Comments: --------------------------------------------------------------------------- [2001-01-25 03:14:29] strube@physik3.gwdg.de Of course I know about LD_LIBRARY_PATH. This is at best a bad workaround. A well-build program should not require LD_LIBRARY_PATH but have the correct runpath coded into it. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- [2001-01-24 20:43:56] sniper@php.net You must use LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable. ie. Do: # export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/export/www/apache/lib:/export/www/mysql/lib/mysql before starting apache. --Jani --------------------------------------------------------------------------- [2001-01-23 11:06:33] strube@physik3.gwdg.de Correction: The configure arguments also contained --with-db2=/export/www/apache --------------------------------------------------------------------------- [2001-01-23 10:59:20] strube@physik3.gwdg.de Apache php module configured with: env CC=/opt/SUNWspro/bin/cc CFLAGS=-xO2 ./configure --with-apxs=/export/www/apache/sbin/apxs --with-ndbm --with-db --with-mysql=/export/www/mysql --enable-yp --enable-sysvsem --enable-sysvshm --with-exec-dir=/export/www/php/bin --enable-versioning --with-config-file-path=/export/www/php/lib --prefix=/export/www/php --disable-debug The resulting libphp4.so references shared libdb2.so (in /export/www/apache/lib) and libmysqlclient.so (in /export/www/mysql/lib/mysql) and thus should have the runpath -R/export/www/apache/lib:/export/www/mysql/lib/mysql coded into it. This does not happen, although the make log shows the presence of the -R options when libtool is called. Dirty workaround: After configure, change line 1082 in libtool: < linkopts= --- > linkopts=-R/export/www/apache/lib:/export/www/mysql/lib/mysql (Apache itself does not have this runpath. Of course, this would suggest another workaround, but one should not rely on this for an independently added module.) --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Full Bug description available at: http://bugs.php.net/?id=8862
