Hello, I'm facing the same issue as some other already went through:
libfontconfig for GCCcore depends on libUUID. I have swap the dependency with linux-utils and recompiled libfontconfig as well as X11, just in case. The goal is to build Caffe which depends on Pango-1.42.4-fosscuda-2018b.eb. When building Pango, I have the following error in the log: /opt/ebsofts/Compiler/GCCcore/7.3.0/fontconfig/2.13.0/lib/libfontconfig.so: error: undefined reference to 'uuid_copy', version 'UUID_1.0' /opt/ebsofts/Compiler/GCCcore/7.3.0/fontconfig/2.13.0/lib/libfontconfig.so: error: undefined reference to 'uuid_generate_random', version 'UUID_1.0' The reason is probably because the linker is trying to use libuuid.so located here /opt/ebsofts/Compiler/GCCcore/7.3.0/LibUUID/1.0.3/lib/libuuid.so instead of the one from linux-utils. I have no clue why is this. I tried to load manually the dependencies of Pango and LibUUID is not loaded as expected. Any clue?
