I had similar issues, but with a few extra lines in config.log: configure:19660: gcc -o conftest -I/usr/include/gdal conftest.c -lgdal -L/usr/lib -lgdal >&5 /usr/bin/ld: warning: libjvm.so, needed by /usr/lib/libgdal.so, not found (try using -rpath or -rpath-link) /usr/lib/libgdal.so: undefined reference to `JNI_CreateJavaVM@SUNWprivate_1.1' /usr/lib/libgdal.so: undefined reference to `pj_ctx_free' /usr/lib/libgdal.so: undefined reference to `JNI_GetCreatedJavaVMs@SUNWprivate_1.1' /usr/lib/libgdal.so: undefined reference to `pj_ctx_alloc' /usr/lib/libgdal.so: undefined reference to `pj_ctx_get_errno' /usr/lib/libgdal.so: undefined reference to `pj_init_plus_ctx' collect2: ld returned 1 exit status ...
I tried installing Java like so `sudo aptitude install openjdk-7-jre`, and the libjvm.so error went away, but all of the undefined references stayed. Installing Oracle's version of java worked for removing the JNI_CreateJavaVM@SUNWprivate_1.1 and JNI_GetCreatedJavaVMs@SUNWprivate_1.1 errors. Following instructions at http://www.webupd8.org/2012/01/install-oracle-java-jdk-7-in-ubuntu-via.html sudo add-apt-repository ppa:webupd8team/java sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install oracle-java7-installer Then adding the library path.. find /usr -name libjvm.so /usr/lib/jvm/java-7-oracle/jre/lib/amd64/server/libjvm.so sudo nano /etc/ld.so.conf.d/jvm.conf # enter the line "/usr/lib/jvm/java-7-oracle/jre/lib/amd64/server" sudo ldconfig Config still failed with configure:19660: gcc -o conftest -I/usr/include/gdal conftest.c -lgdal -L/usr/lib -lgdal >&5 /usr/lib/libgdal.so: undefined reference to `pj_ctx_free' /usr/lib/libgdal.so: undefined reference to `pj_ctx_alloc' /usr/lib/libgdal.so: undefined reference to `pj_ctx_get_errno' /usr/lib/libgdal.so: undefined reference to `pj_init_plus_ctx' collect2: ld returned 1 exit status Turns out those were from outdated libproj packages. The final fix was `sudo aptitude upgrade` The following packages will be upgraded: libproj-dev libproj0 proj-bin proj-data ... After that, the install finished without a hitch. Step 3 of 4 was unnecessary for me as well. -- View this message in context: http://postgis.17.n6.nabble.com/Updated-PostGIS-2-0-Ubuntu-12-04-install-instructions-posted-tp4955872p5000179.html Sent from the PostGIS - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ postgis-users mailing list postgis-users@postgis.refractions.net http://postgis.refractions.net/mailman/listinfo/postgis-users
