Thanks problem was solved. I created a soft link in /usr/lib for the ppc compatable libraries. Though not a standard way but solved my problem.

This is a libtool problem. There's a work-around and a proper fix. Workaround: Hack the libtiff.la file in /opt/montavista/pro/devkit/ppc/83xx/target/usr/lib and change the /usr/lib path, which trips on the host's version of the library, to /opt/montavista/pro/devkit/ppc/83xx/target/usr/lib, which is the cross-compile path. This will technically cause the binary to be broken, as it will think libtiff.so is located in /opt/montavista/pro/devkit/ppc/83xx/target/usr/lib and not /usr/lib where it will *eventually* be located. Fortunately, the runtime linker will look in /usr/lib anyway, and all will work. Proper fix: Build a cross version of libtool and use that. > > 1) I have check the fiule /usr/lib/libtiff.so the file exists but > IT IS COMPATIBLE WITH X86 architecture. Of course it is, it's for the host, not the ppc target. > DISCLAIMER: > ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ----------------------------------------------- > The contents of this e-mail and any attachment(s) are confidential and > intended > for the named recipient(s) only. > It shall not attach any liability on the originator or NECHCL or its > affiliates.
