My installation is a multiarch debian install. The x86_64 libdir is '/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu' and 32-bit version in 'usr/lib32' on a x86_64-linux-gnu system and '/usr/lib/' on a 'x86-linux-gnu' system. The modules get installed in sub-dirs of the library, e.g. libemotion.so gets installed in '/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/' and emotion modules in '/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/emotion/'. This makes the 'MODULE_ARCH' variable in autoconf files unnecessary; and, as I have on my system (untested -:(), a lib32 AND a x86_64 installation possible. This will conform to most packaging systems AFAIK, and definitely to Debian. If the logic is modified to scan from right to left the absence of '^lib' substring to get the prefix, and later add ALL the subsequent parts, all will be fine. Better still, have eina_prefix_new take the $PREFIX value too to enable a left-to-right scan. > > >> ERR<3392>:emotion-generic emotion_generic.c:105 _get_player() Trying >> generic player '/usr/lib/lib/emotion/utils/em_generic_vlc' >> > > likely the double "lib" is the problem? Of course. If a soft-link is setup for /usr/lib/lib to point to /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu, everything works! > > Also, please see your eina/config.h if HAVE_DLADDR is defined, it will > impact eina_prefix work. > Yes, it is defined.
