The problem trying to be fixed there seems to be related to libraries being linked into the backend vs. frontend.
Since the contrib shared library modules are linked in a similar environment backend code I decided to use BE_DLLLIBS. Here is the new patch (which doesn't affect libpq). -rocco Index: src/makefiles/Makefile.aix =================================================================== RCS file: /projects/cvsroot/pgsql/src/makefiles/Makefile.aix,v retrieving revision 1.21 diff -c -r1.21 Makefile.aix *** src/makefiles/Makefile.aix 9 Oct 2002 16:21:54 -0000 1.21 --- src/makefiles/Makefile.aix 18 Jul 2005 19:59:59 -0000 *************** *** 15,20 **** --- 15,21 ---- LDFLAGS_SL = -Wl,-bnoentry -Wl,-H512 -Wl,-bM:SRE endif + BE_DLLLIBS= $(LIBS) EXPSUFF= .exp IMPSUFF= .imp > -----Original Message----- > From: Tom Lane [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Monday, July 18, 2005 12:47 PM > To: Andrew Dunstan > Cc: Rocco Altier; Zeugswetter Andreas DAZ SD; > pgsql-patches@postgresql.org > Subject: Re: [PATCHES] Changes for AIX buildfarm > > > Andrew Dunstan <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> writes: > > Tom Lane wrote: > >> Er, which buildfarm report is prompting this? > > > Rocco is probably doing what I normally ask, which is to get builds > > working before starting to upload results to the buildfarm > server (a > > request which is more honored in the breach than the observance). > > Fair enough.
