Comment (by sysrqb): Replying to [comment:21 nickm]: > I'd actually like to deprecate the TOR_SEARCH_LIBRARY nonsense if possible, and not add its use for zlib. (I don't understand why this patch starts using TOR_SEARCH_LIBRARY for zlib, but I assume it's necessary? Can we use pkg-config instead?) Hrm, it shouldn't. I simply moved the zlib check from being after the openssl checks to being before it (because openssl depends on zlib). > > When I try to use this patch with `--enable-static-tor`, it fails during configuration with > {{{ > checking whether free(NULL) works... no > configure: error: Your libc implementation doesn't allow free(NULL), as required by C99. > }}} > > Am I doing something wrong? > Nope, that is possible. I ran into that, too. Do you have glibc-static installed? `-lc` is probably resulting in an error due to the lack of a static library. I should've added a more helpful error message for this case. I can do that. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/6623#comment:22> Tor Bug Tracker & Wiki <https://trac.torproject.org/> The Tor Project: anonymity online
