Description michael 2001-09-21 16:56:31 UTC

On my solaris install, xslt-config --libs gives the following information:

[3.1.9]michaels@iiidev1:/opt/apps/embperl2-xslt/libs/libxslt/bin>
./xslt-config --libs
-L/opt/apps/embperl2-xslt/libs/libxslt/libxslt-1.0.4/lib
-L/opt/apps/embperl2-xslt/libs/libxml2/libxml2-2.4.5/lib
-R/opt/apps/embperl2-xslt/libs/libxml2/libxml2-2.4.5/lib
-L/opt/apps/embperl2-xslt/libs/zlib/lib
-R/opt/apps/embperl2-xslt/libs/zlib/lib -L/lib -lxslt -lxml2 -lz -lm
-lsocket -lnsl

I find that libxslt does not link correctly unless I add 
-R/opt/apps/embperl2-xslt/libs/libxslt/libxslt-1.0.4/lib
to the list above.

For comparison, with libxml2, xml2-config --libs gives:
[3.1.9]michaels@iiidev1:/opt/apps/embperl2-xslt/libs/libxml2/bin>
./xml2-config --libs
-L/opt/apps/embperl2-xslt/libs/libxml2/libxml2-2.4.5/lib
-R/opt/apps/embperl2-xslt/libs/libxml2/libxml2-2.4.5/lib -lxml2
-L/opt/apps/embperl2-xslt/libs/zlib/lib
-R/opt/apps/embperl2-xslt/libs/zlib/lib -lz -L/lib -lm -lsocket -lnsl

IE in this case the necessary -R line is included.

Okay, I think I have fixed it in CVS, as I can't check
grab the change or wait for next release:

http://cvs.gnome.org/bonsai/cvsquery.cgi?module=libxslt&branch=HEAD&branchtype=match&dir=libxslt&file=&filetype=match&who=veillard&whotype=match&sortby=Date&hours=&date=explicit&mindate=10%2F04%2F01+09%3A49&maxdate=10%2F04%2F01+09%3A51&cvsroot=%2Fcvs%2Fgnome

  thanks,

Daniel

Okay this should be fixed in the last releases.
Note that Gary Pennington now provides Solaris binaries,
