In many +cases, toolexeclib libraries will be installed in /usr/lib, so it +doesn't make any difference. + +However, with multilib toolchains, they get installed in a +subdirectory of /usr/lib/. For example, with a Sourcery CodeBench +PowerPC toolchain, if the e500mc multilib variant is used, the libffi +library gets installed in /usr/lib/te500mc/. This is due to the +following code in the configure script: + + multi_os_directory=`$CC -print-multi-os-directory` + case $multi_os_directory in + .) ;; # Avoid trailing /. + *) toolexeclibdir=$toolexeclibdir/$multi_os_directory ;; + esac + +Once the library is installed in /usr/lib/te500mc/, nothing works +because this installation location is inconsistent with the +installation location declared in libffi.pc. + +So, instead of using this bizarre toolexeclib_LTLIBRARIES, simply use +the more standard lib_LTLIBRARIES, which ensures that the libffi +library is always installed in /usr/lib. + +Signed-off-by: Thomas Petazzoni <thomas.petazzoni@free-electrons.com> +--- + Makefile.am | 2 +- + 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) + +diff --git a/Makefile.am b/Makefile.am +index 6f669ca..b60bcc1 100644 +--- a/Makefile.am ++++ b/Makefile.am +@@ -93,7 +93,7 @@ FLAGS_TO_PASS = $(AM_MAKEFLAGS) + + MAKEOVERRIDES= + +-toolexeclib_LTLIBRARIES = libffi.la ++lib_LTLIBRARIES = libffi.la + noinst_LTLIBRARIES = libffi_convenience.la + + libffi_la_SOURCES = src/prep_cif.c src/types.c \ +-- +1.7.9.5 + |
