crosscompile ... ld problems ... on SuSE 9.2

[Martin]

Hi ...

I'm trying to crosscompile the nice gpsdrive program from www.ganter.at ... but got problems when crosscompiling ...

running from inside /opt/arm/runzgcc-vfp.sh ... running ./configure with parameters ...

But linker got errors with reading symbols from /opt/arm/3.3.2-vfp/lib/libgobject-2.0.so: could not read symbols: Invalid operation
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

...
sh-3.00$ dir -l /opt/arm/3.3.2-vfp/lib/libgobject-2.0*

Any ideas?

Thanks a lot

Hi ...

LDFLAGS not set in Makefile ... :-(

Thanks for help

Hi :-)

Nobody any idea ? I cannot believe :-(

Martin

[lardman]

... could not get the linker use /opt/arm/3.3.2-vfp/armv5tel-cacko-linux/lib/libgobject-2.0.so instead of /opt/arm/3.3.2-vfp/lib/libgobject-2.0.so

The two should be the same; one is a symlink to the other.

Once you source the env-var script (or do you have to run a script which starts a new bash shell?), what does ld point to? Is it the cross-toolchain version, or your native one (that's what I'd guess).

To fix this, add whichever of: /opt/arm/3.3.2-vfp/armv5tel-cacko-linux/bin and /opt/arm/3.3.2-vfp/bin is not already in the path, to the front of the path. One of these (and I can't remember which is which) contains binaries called armv5tel-cacko-linux-gcc (and so on), the other will contain a plain gcc which is symlinked to the other one (or perhaps the symlink goes the other way?).

This will sort your problem out. That said, you might be better to edit the makefile to ensure that the $LINKER variable points to the correct version: armv5tel-cacko-linux-ld.

Regards,


Simon

Hi :-)

As you can see in my starting post I'm using that  /opt/arm/runzgcc-vfp.sh script from pdaXrom sdk ... starting a new shell ...

starting ./configure with ./configure --host=armv5tel-cacko-linux --build=i686-linux --x-includes=/opt/arm/3.3.2/armv5tel-cacko-linux/X11R6/include --x-libraries=/opt/arm/3.3.2/armv5tel-cacko-linux/X11R6/lib --disable-debug --prefix=/usr/local

make

Thanks
Martin

Try editing the following line in the /opt/arm/runzgcc-vfp.sh script:

Change:
export PATH=$BASEDIR/bin:$QTDIR/bin:$X11DIR/bin:$PATH

to:
export PATH=$BASEDIR/bin:$BASEDIR/armv5tel-cacko-linux/bin:$QTDIR/bin:$X11DIR/bin:$PATH

@simon ... again

THANKS ... but did not change anything :-(

... which user/group do all the sdk crosscompoiler files have? root/root ... or root/users <anyexistinguser>/users

... trying to install SDK crosscompiler again ... helps nothing ...

... getting sources again ... helps nothing ...

... as you see the libs are NOT the same and NOT a link only in this two different lib-directories ... and there are several files existinmg only in one of the directories :-(

I'm now at the end of my knowledge :-(((

Not wanting to sound like a smartass, but why-o-why are you fumbling manually with that stuff ?

There's a shitload of metadata waiting for you to use in the OpenEmbedded repository. We already solved lots of cross compilation problems in a general way - new packages can be added _very_ easily and this is the reason why every OE generated feed now features over 2000 packages. We did this all with just a handful of people because the OpenEmbedded build system is so powerful.

You could add the necessary infrastructure to build pdaXrom packages pretty easily if you were motivated to look into it. All communities would benefit from that.

I presume that comment just came out wrong; I'd be very hesitant before making a comment like that, especially when you're talking to someone who knows what they are talking about.

In any case I agree with Mickey, it would be a far less painful process if you (and by that I mean all the pdaXrom people) used OE, it would also produce benefits for both sides as each could use the others' packages, etc.

Back to your problem briefly: it should work (in my limited experience at least), if it doesn't then there's either something wrong with your toolchain (I don't know why those two files are different sizes for example), or you've made a mistake.

Regards,

@simon

thanks for your comment ... but I'm not very familar with OE ... does not know what do you mean with manually ...

Is there a good paper reading about OE ... for crosscompile with pdaXrom ... I have problem to get right with allll these automatisms with doing everything automatic ;-) ... I a programmer from the first time running everything by hand ... not getting the benefits of ++ in my head *smile*

@mickeyl
sorry for my biting backward comment ;-) ...

Thanks a lot and hope to get it right

Martin,

in one of your previous posts you wrote:

starting ./configure with ./configure --host=armv5tel-cacko-linux --build=i686-linux --x-includes=/opt/arm/3.3.2/armv5tel-cacko-linux/X11R6/include --x-libraries=/opt/arm/3.3.2/armv5tel-cacko-linux/X11R6/lib --disable-debug --prefix=/usr/local

which assumes $BASEDIR is "/opt/arm/3.3.2", but otherwise it looks like you are using "/opt/arm/3.3.2-vfp". Perhaps mixing VFP and pre-VFP SDK versions?
runzgcc-vfp.sh and configure.sh must use the same base dir i think.

Thanks for your post ... I think it is an older post of mine where I use pdaXrom 1.0.5 for the first time ... very happy about pdaXrom :-) ...

... at the moment I'm using pdaXrom 1.1.0 Kathrin RC5 ... deleted all other stuff, older generic ARM linux SDKs too ...

... at the moment I'm erasing everything on my linuxbox which is from ARM (cross-)compile SDKs or something has to do with it ... installing pdaXrom SDK again from scratch ...

... installing , using new sourecodes for my crosscompile Apps ... hoping it will solve my problems ...

Thanks
Martin

Yes - as someone new to the SDK who has just read this thread, if you tell me what to do I will try it!
