Hey everyone, I am trying to build and link some 32bit binaries on
Ubuntu 15.10 64bit, but no matter what combination of arguments I give
FIND_LIBRARY I cannot get it to use the 32bit libs. I have been
scouring the mailing lists and came up with all these things to try
but nothing has worked so far. I am using cmake 3.0.2. Please let me
know what I am missing. Thanks in advance for your help.
CMake 3.0.2 is pretty old, and there were some find and other issues
for early CMake-3 versions. I don't know whether any of those issues
are relevant to the issue you are discussing. Nevertheless, as an
experiment (and to make sure your eventual solution works for the
latest CMake) I would suggest you try building and using the latest
released version of CMake, 3.5.2, to see if that makes any difference.

Ok I upgraded to 3.2.2 which is the latest ubuntu 15.10 offers (I will
try 16.04 w/3.5.1 soon), but I get the same issue.
Is my syntax all correct as far as you can tell?
Hi Nick:
The syntax is OK _as far as I can tell_, but I did notice one important
issue in the libdl information you supplied with your original post which is
your 64-bit version of libdl is
-- DL_LIBRARY is /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libdl.so
but there is no libdl.so in your 32-bit directory listings. The closest
you come is
/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libdl.so.2 -> libdl-2.21.so
but that doesn't cut it, and you need a development symlink (provided
by the development version of a library package) that defines a 32-bit
libdl.so symlink that can be found by CMake. Such symlink would
ordinarily be supplied by a Ubuntu development package. I don't have
Ubuntu installed myself, but Ubuntu is based on Debian, and for Debian
jessie the package name is libc6-dev-i386, and it contains the
/usr/lib32/libdl.so
symlink. So look for a similarly named package for Ubuntu, verify it contains
libdl.so (I did that on Debian using "apt-file search libdl.so") and install
it.
I haven't looked at the other 32-bit libraries you are trying to
find, but I assume there are similar "did not install development
version of package" issues for those as well.
If installing the correct development versions of the 32-bit libraries
does not completely solve your issue, then my advice is
1. When faced with a CMake issue build and install the latest CMake
(don't wait for Ubuntu to package it up)
to help you illustrate the problem. Building the latest version of
CMake is straightforward. You can use an older version of cmake to
do that or else use the bootstrap script (mentioned at
<https://cmake.org/download/> to build on Unix platforms that don't
have any cmake version available.
2. make a really simple test project to illustrate the problem, e.g.,
cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.5.2 FATAL_ERROR)
project(test C)
find_library(DL_LIBRARY dl)
message(STATUS DL_LIBRARY = ${DL_LIBRARY})
I tried that project here (with minimum 3.4.3 since that is the latest
version of CMake I happen to have built here [with the bootstrap
script by the way]) with the following (good) results:
-- The C compiler identification is GNU 4.9.2
-- Check for working C compiler: /usr/bin/cc
-- Check for working C compiler: /usr/bin/cc -- works
-- Detecting C compiler ABI info
-- Detecting C compiler ABI info - done
-- Detecting C compile features
-- Detecting C compile features - done
-- DL_LIBRARY=/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libdl.so
-- Configuring done
-- Generating done
-- Build files have been written to: /tmp/test_cmake/build_dir
I assume you would get similarly good results with this simple project
in the 32-bit case once you have installed the relevant development
packages for your 32-bit libraries, but you should check that.
