More problems in building SystemImager on CentOS 6.2: Besides the kernel
reconfiguration issue (which may be innocent, perhaps?), the building of
parted 2.3 aborts on RHEL 6.2 during the configuration stage:
In /root/rpmbuild/BUILD/systemimager-4.3.0/initrd_source/src/parted-2.3
the config.log shows:
# ./configure --disable-Werror --disable-shared --prefix=
...
checking for dm_task_create in -ldevmapper... no
configure: error: libdevmapper could not be found, but is required for the
--enable-device-mapper option, which is enabled by default. Either disable
device-mapper support with --disable-device-mapper or download and install
device-mapper from:
http://sources.redhat.com/dm/
Note: if you are using precompiled packages you will need the development
package as well (it may be called device-mapper-devel or something similar).
The /lib/libdevmapper.so.1.02 shared library does exist. But RHEL6 does
NOT have any package named device-mapper-devel or the like.
The check dm_task_create in -ldevmapper can be extracted from the
configure script:
#ifdef __cplusplus
extern "C"
#endif
char dm_task_create ();
int
main ()
{
return dm_task_create ();
;
return 0;
}
Compiling this on RHEL6 gives:
# gcc test.c -ldevmapper
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -ldevmapper
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
I'm really confused: Why does this code break, while other people seem
to have built SystemImager (including parted) successfully on
RHEL6/CentOS6 ?
Thanks for sharing any insights,
Ole
