Possible issue with libtool

[gsmmobiledev]

I am trying to cross-compile ImageMagick-6.7.5-10 for arm-angstrom using an Ubuntu host and the arm-angstrom-linux-gnueabi-gcc tool chain. I can successfully cross-compile other software (such as libjpeg) using the same toolchain. I am using the following configure command line:

./configure --prefix=/home/zephyr/Downloads/ImageMagick-6.7.5-10/build-im --host=arm-angstrom-linux-gnueabi CC=arm-angstrom-linux-gnueabi-gcc CPPFLAGS='-I/usr/local/angstrom/arm/arm-angstrom-linux-gnueabi/usr/include' LDFLAGS='-L/usr/local/angstrom/arm/arm-angstrom-linux-gnueabi/lib -L/usr/local/angstrom/arm/arm-angstrom-linux-gnueabi/usr/lib'

Download the latest ImageMagick release, 6.8.8-1. If it fails to cross-compile, let us know and we will investigate further.

Okay... I downloaded the latest version (6.8.8.1) and get the same libtool error. The error is as follows...

./libtool: line 7486: cd: $SDK_PATH/$TARGET_SYS/usr/lib: No such file or directory
libtool: link: warning: cannot determine absolute directory name of `$SDK_PATH/$TARGET_SYS/usr/lib'

/bin/sed: can't read $SDK_PATH/$TARGET_SYS/usr/lib/libjpeg.la: No such file or directory

make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/zephyr/Downloads/ImageMagick-6.8.8-1'
make: *** [all] Error 2

What I have determined is that this is possibly a cross-compile toolchain issue rather than IM. The $SDK_PATH and $TARGET environment variables are defined in a setup script that is run in the terminal window before running './configure' and 'make' on the IM code. I have verified that $SDK_PATH and $TARGET_SYS point to real directories using '$echo $SDK_PATH', but libtool does not seem to use these and rather takes the literal names defined in the .la files. Does anybody have any suggestion on how I can fix this without having to edit all of the dependacy .la files?

[magick]

What about a static build? Use ./configure -0-disable-shared.

[glennrp]

Does your setup script export the variables after it sets them?

export SDK_PATH TARGET_SYS

I'm having exactly the same issue:


CCLD wand/libMagickWand-6.Q16.la
/bin/sed: can't read Development/ImageMagick-6.8.8-1/magick/libMagickCore-6.Q16.la: No such file or directory

make[1]: Leaving directory `/media/tom/UbuntuExtra/For Web Development/ImageMagick-6.8.8-1'
make: *** [all] Error 2

This is without make options. When I tried again following instructions for disabling shared, I got this:

configure: error: unrecognized option: `-O-disable-shared'
Try `./configure --help' for more information
tom@home:/media/tom/UbuntuExtra/For Web Development/ImageMagick-6.8.8-1$ ./configure -0-disable-shared
configure: error: unrecognized option: `-0-disable-shared'

(I wasn't sure whether it was a zero or "o" so I tried both)

[gsmmobiledev]

TomConnolly, I think the above was a typo. The switch setting should be --disable-shared. I will post my results shortly.

Ok... still having issues with my cross-compile environment. I have the required cross-compiled libraries in /usr/local/angstrom/arm/arm-angstrom-linux-gnueabi/usr/lib and $SDK_PATH and $TARGET_SYS are exported with the above path components (i.e. $SDK_PATH = /usr/local/angstrom/arm and $TARGET_SYS = arm-angstrom-linux-gnueabi)

So $SDK_PATH/$TARGET_SYS/usr/lib/libjpeg.la should resove to /usr/local/angstrom/arm/arm-angstrom-linux-gnueabi/usr/lib/libjpeg.la ... and the .la file is present at that location. I run the following configure command:

Code: Select all

./configure --prefix=/home/zephyr/Downloads/ImageMagick-6.8.8-1/build-im --host=arm-angstrom-linux-gnueabi --disable-shared

and get the following output from the configure step:

You can see from the above that shared libraries are disabled and static is enabled. In the above, LDFLAGS is not set. If I run ./configure with the LDFLAGS='-L/usr/local/angstrom/arm/arm-angstrom-linux-gnueabi/usr/lib', this will set LDFLAGS, but the output from make is the same.... it compiles just fine but when it hits the first link step, it cant seem to resolve the location of libjpeg.la correctly (output from make below)

I have been able to cross compile other code (i.e. libjpeg and mjpeg-streamer) for angstrom with no issues. I am at a loss for how to fix this issue. Any advice or thoughts would be most appreciated.
-thx

I also ran into the same error, with by libjpeg.la pristinely sitting in /usr/local/lib/. My very hacky work around was to "sudo ln -s /usr/local/lib/libjpeg.la /usr/lib/libjpeg.la"
Its not pretty but it got it to compile.
