[Bug 1032639] Re: can not link against libxml2
This is an intentional toolchain change, which brings significant benefits and features to Ubuntu. Similar changes are adopted by other distributions such as Debian and Fedora.

This unacceptable change in the linker has the potential to break many packages.

[Bug 1032639] Re: can not link against libxml2
I had the same problem when compiling libxenserver-6.0.0-1-src. The solution was the same as above, i.e. changing the line 65 of the Makefile like this: $(CC) $(LDFLAGS) -o $@ $< -L . -lxenserver becomes: $(CC) -o $@ $< -L . -lxenserver $(LDFLAGS) Then the compilation worked just fine.

[Bug 1032639] Re: can not link against libxml2
Thanks for the bug report. With the changes to the linker in 11.10+, you must be sure when compiling to specify the -llibrary arguments after the objects that reference them. In the case above: gcc -o main $(xml2-config --cflags --libs) main.o should be: gcc -o main main.o $(xml2-config --cflags --libs) so that the -llibrary args end up at the end of the command line. Please see http://wiki.debian.org/ToolChain/DSOLinking for an overview of the changes. ** Changed in: libxml2 (Ubuntu) Status: New => Invalid -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1032639 Title: can not link against libxml2 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libxml2/+bug/1032639/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
