Par Keepers,
I am building an app on a Fedora 4 system and testing on a Fedora 5
system. I am linking in libdb and all works fine on the FC4 sys,
but on the FC5 system I get the following error:
DB_File needs compatible versions of libdb & db.h
you have db.h version 4.3.27 and libdb version 4.3.29
I checked and the FC4 system is using libdb 4.3.27 and the FC5 is
using 4.3.29 which forces me to conclude that my lib from the FC4
system is not being linked into the executable. I am linking in
libdb using the following command:
pp --link=libdb -o out.exe source.pl <cr>
using the -vvv switch I am seeing the lib included in the output:
/usr/bin/pp: ... adding /usr/lib/../../lib/libdb-4.3.so as
shlib/i686-linux/libdb-4.3.so
when i run the app, i looked in '/tmp/cache-lotsofcharsdir/' and
found libdb-4.3.so there, but when i went to
''/tmp/cache-lotsofcharsdir/inc/shlib/i686-linux', libdb-4.3.so was
not there.
Please advise?
regards,
Paul Salazar
Paul,
What version of PAR? As of a few versions ago, there was a problem
with trying to pull in symlinked .so files. I had written an FAQ
entry about it at the URL below. It's no longer in the FAQs so I
assume that it has been fixed in recent versions.
