If I'm not wrong, the libraries look like this:
/opt/compile-3.3.5/lib/libiconv.so >>
/opt/compile-3.3.5/lib/libiconv.so.2 >>
/usr/lib/libiconv.so.2
and
/opt/compile-3.3.5/lib/libiconv.la
When configuring:
1. 'configure' checks whether standard (Glibc's) iconv works.
2. If libiconv's 'iconv.h' is installed, 'configure' will probably fail with:| Code Sample | | undefined reference to 'libiconv_open' |
2. If the first test fails, 'configure' checks for libiconv (looks for
'-liconv').
3. 'configure' will probably give this error:| Code Sample | | /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -liconv |
because '/opt/compile-3.3.5/lib/libiconv.so' is not in the default library path (defined in '/etc/ld.so.conf').
Possible solutions:
-- Maybe set the LD_LIBRARY_PATH variable when compiling??| Code Sample | | export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/lib:/usr/lib:/usr/X11R6/lib:/usr/local/lib:/opt/compile-3.3.5/lib |
-- Or, run 'configure' with LDFLAGS??| Code Sample | LDFLAGS='-L/opt/compile-3.3.5/lib' \
./configure |
I think my earlier suggestion to put '/usr/lib/libiconv.so' in 'user.tar.gz' was wrong because it is a waste of RAM.
You current method is correct; we just need to set LD_LIBRARY_PATH/LDFLAGS so that '-liconv' can be detected.
So, please continue with your current method!
Thanks!
