Re: Bug#182041: PIC library has bad name
mklibs fails to find the PIC library for reduction since it's called libnewt-utf8_pic.a while mklibs expects it to simply be libnewt_pic.a We're using newt debian-installer so it'd be nice if this were fixed so we could save some bytes on the boot media. :-) I have a few questions: I've thought boot-floppies worked with the name libnewt-utf8_pic.a. Why doesn't debian-installer mklibs not work with it? Because libnewt.so.0.50 is a symlink to libnewt-utf8.so.0.50.17. $ ldd tmp/cdrom/tree/usr/lib/cdebconf/frontend/newt.so libnewt.so.0.50 = /usr/lib/libnewt.so.0.50 (0x40005000) libc.so.6 = /lib/libc.so.6 (0x40014000) libslang.so.1-UTF8 = /lib/libslang.so.1-UTF8 (0x40124000) libm.so.6 = /lib/libm.so.6 (0x40185000) libdl.so.2 = /lib/libdl.so.2 (0x401a6000) /lib/ld-linux.so.2 = /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x8000) so mklibs only sees libnewt.so.0.50 and strips off the suffix and gets libnewt_pic.a.

And why does the boot media get some bytes free by changing the name here ? Because of library reduction when using my new newt frontend? I haven't done any actual measuring, but I thought the whole point with _pic libs and mklibs was to reduce the size of the libs? /Martin signature.asc Description: Detta =?ISO-8859-1?Q?=E4r?= en digitalt signeradmeddelandedel
