>Environment:
SunOS 5.10 Generic_142900-03 sun4v sparc SUNW,SPARC-Enterprise-T5120
>Description:
I know that no one is using this anymore but just for the record www/wml does not build on Solaris 10 because of the use of -z defs when linking a shared object which leeds to error message regarding missing symbols.
There is a section in the wml_backend/p2_mp4h/configure file regarding solaris
solaris*)
# gcc --version < 3.0 without binutils cannot create self contained
# shared libraries reliably, requiring libgcc.a to resolve some of
# the object symbols generated in some cases. Libraries that use
# assert need libgcc.a to resolve __eprintf, for example. Linking
# a copy of libgcc.a into every shared library to guarantee resolving
# such symbols causes other problems: According to Tim Van Holder
# <tim.van.holder@pandora.be>, C++ libraries end up with a separate
# (to the application) exception stack for one thing.
ending with setting no_undefined_flag=' -z defs' which leeds to a build error
>How-To-Repeat:
build www/wml on Solaris 10
>Fix:
I propose to add these lines to the Makefile :
.if ${OPSYS} == "SunOS"
SUBST_CLASSES+= configure
SUBST_STAGE.configure= post-patch
SUBST_FILES.configure= wml_backend/p2_mp4h/configure
SUBST_SED.configure= -e "s|no_undefined_flag=' -z defs'|no_undefined_flag=|g"
.endif
This patch/workaround resolves the build issue.
