I was looking at an issue reported by a forum user https://forum.openwrt.org/viewtopic.php?id=55474 and buildbot http://buildbot.openwrt.org:8010/broken_packages/octeon/openvswitch/compile.txt
some research showed that there is a libtool patch available that should fix this issue: http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/libtool.git/commit/?id=5f7f7d9615bf650cf99d581a33b3e18357f79951 (integrated in libtool 2.4.4) - I get this patch applied to tools/libtool so that $STAGING_DIR_HOST/share/aclocal/libtool.m4 contains the part - This does not get applied or used in openvswitch despite the pkg fixup:=libtool there I fail to find the "-m elf64btsmip" in config.log (the openvswitch/m4/libtool.m4 contains patched version) I have I am a bit unsure about the whole autotools/libtool build process (especially with this package) especially regarding libtool works with that package/regarding the wrapper with "-m" switch. Anybody can help in solving this issue or fix the toolchain ? other possibilities what is "wrong": - OpenWrt might be missing "GNUTARGET" environment variable - binutils ld might be buggy (" ld uses the natural format of the target") according to https://sourceware.org/binutils/docs-2.25/ld/Environment.html#Environment hackish solution ("LDEMULATION" environment variable) works according to thread _______________________________________________ openwrt-devel mailing list [email protected] https://lists.openwrt.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openwrt-devel
