Michael,
Thank you for your reply. Unfortunately, I'm not as knowledgeable about the
GNU development tools as I should be. Any troubleshooting tips you wish to
share are greatly appreciated. Here is some more information about my
setup.

I removed all the Solaris companion CD software and all the packages I built
myself from the machine *before* bootstrapping the OpenPKG system (with the
exception of gcc from the SMCgcc package). I built the OpenPKG tiff
package from SRPM without a problem (and installed it) before I attempted
to build pdflib.

Actually, I already had the binutils package installed (built from OpenPKG
SRPM) and in the path first (thanks to "eval `/opt/openpkg/etc/rc --eval
all env`"). I double checked and 'which ld' returns '/opt/openpkg/bin/ld'.
I should mention that, after bootstrapping, the first OpenPKG SRPM I built
was gcc. After installing the resulting gcc RPM, I removed the SMCgcc
Solaris package and proceded to build from OpenPKG SRPMs using the new gcc.
Should I have built the binutils SRPM using SMCgcc *before* building gcc
from SRPM? I suspect that, even though the other packages compile and
work, they may be using Sun's ld. For instance, if I run ldd on
/opt/openpkg/bin/cvs, the result is:
libxnet.so.1 => /lib/libxnet.so.1
libc.so.1 => /lib/libc.so.1
libdl.so.1 => /lib/libdl.so.1
libsocket.so.1 => /lib/libsocket.so.1
libnsl.so.1 => /lib/libnsl.so.1
libmp.so.2 => /lib/libmp.so.2
/usr/platform/SUNW,Ultra-250/lib/libc_psr.so.1
What is the order in which I should build the development SRPMs to make the
OpenPKG environment as close to self-hosting as possible?
Thanks again for taking the time to look into this.
