First of all, thanks for all the help and suggestions. Little by little I am undestanding more of the whole building process.
Now for the results :) Using JF's test, I don't see any errors, ie nm doesn't print any symbol names. (BTW, could that script be useful in the validation code of fink?) Using oTool -L on all the libs, I now see, with Dan's patch that much more libs are linked. But not for libajax and libnucleus: libajax.5.0.0.dylib: /sw/lib/EMBOSS/libajax.5.dylib (compatibility version 6.0.0, current version 6.0.0) /usr/lib/libgcc_s.1.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0, current version 1.0.0) /usr/lib/libSystem.B.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0, current version 111.0.0) libnucleus.5.0.0.dylib: /sw/lib/EMBOSS/libnucleus.5.dylib (compatibility version 6.0.0, current version 6.0.0) /sw/lib/EMBOSS/libajax.5.dylib (compatibility version 6.0.0, current version 6.0.0) /usr/lib/libgcc_s.1.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0, current version 1.0.0) /usr/lib/libSystem.B.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0, current version 111.0.0) Not sure if that is a problem. Unfortunately, I still get the same error: t/1....Can't load '/sw/src/fink.build/bio-emboss-pm588-5.0.0.1-1/Bio- Emboss-5.0.0.1/blib/arch/auto/Bio/Emboss/Emboss.bundle' for module Bio::Emboss: dlopen(/sw/src/fink.build/bio-emboss-pm588-5.0.0.1-1/Bio- Emboss-5.0.0.1/blib/arch/auto/Bio/Emboss/Emboss.bundle, 1): Symbol not found: _XS_Bio__Emboss_ajStrTokenCount Referenced from: /sw/src/fink.build/bio-emboss-pm588-5.0.0.1-1/Bio- Emboss-5.0.0.1/blib/arch/auto/Bio/Emboss/Emboss.bundle Expected in: dynamic lookup This is with the line BEGIN { delete $ENV{PERL_DL_NONLAZY}; }; NOT commented out (the code as is). And based on Peter's comment, that means that there is still something missing: > Yes, this makes it pass RTLD_NOW to dlopen() which is similar to > setting > DYLD_BIND_AT_LAUNCH. It should work with this set, if it does not it > means there is a missing lib or symbol when linking the loadable > bundle. Actually, if I *do* comment out that line, the error changes to: t/1....Can't load '/sw/src/fink.build/bio-emboss-pm588-5.0.0.1-1/Bio- Emboss-5.0.0.1/blib/arch/auto/Bio/Emboss/Emboss.bundle' for module Bio::Emboss: dlopen(/sw/src/fink.build/bio-emboss-pm588-5.0.0.1-1/Bio- Emboss-5.0.0.1/blib/arch/auto/Bio/Emboss/Emboss.bundle, 2): Symbol not found: _XS_Bio__Emboss_ajStrTokenCount Referenced from: /sw/src/fink.build/bio-emboss-pm588-5.0.0.1-1/Bio- Emboss-5.0.0.1/blib/arch/auto/Bio/Emboss/Emboss.bundle Expected in: dynamic lookup at t/1.t line 11 Note the 2) instead of the 1) So then I thought, maybe there are symbols or libs missing in Emboss.bundle? oTool -L on that file shows: /sw/src/fink.build/bio-emboss-pm588-5.0.0.1-1/Bio-Emboss-5.0.0.1/blib/ arch/auto/Bio/Emboss/Emboss.bundle: /sw/lib/EMBOSS/libnucleus.5.dylib (compatibility version 6.0.0, current version 6.0.0) /sw/lib/EMBOSS/libajax.5.dylib (compatibility version 6.0.0, current version 6.0.0) /sw/lib/EMBOSS/libajaxg.5.dylib (compatibility version 6.0.0, current version 6.0.0) /usr/lib/libgcc_s.1.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0, current version 1.0.0) /usr/lib/libSystem.B.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0, current version 111.0.0) That seems ok to me, since ajStrTokenCount is part of libajax. Of course, disabling testing solves the building error, but not the errors above. cheers, - Koen (still struggling) ------------------------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is sponsored by: The Future of Linux Business White Paper from Novell.
