[gnutls-dev] gnutls-1.0.0 build errors

[Dimitri Papadopoulos-Orfanos]

Hi,

I'm attempting to build gnutls-1.0.0 on Solaris.

I already have libgcrypt-1.1.90 and opencdk-0.5.3:

	$ libgcrypt-config --prefix
	/usr/local/libgcrypt-1.1.90
	$
	$ libgcrypt-config --cflags
	-I/usr/local/libgcrypt-1.1.90/include \
		-I/usr/local/libgpg-error-0.5/include
	$ libgcrypt-config --libs
	-L/usr/local/libgcrypt-1.1.90/lib -lgcrypt \
		-L/usr/local/libgpg-error-0.5/lib -lgpg-error
	$
	$
	$ opencdk-config --prefix
	/usr/local/opencdk-0.5.3
	$
	$ opencdk-config --cflags
		-I/usr/local/libgcrypt-1.1.90/include \
		-I/usr/local/libgpg-error-0.5/include \
		-I/usr/local/opencdk-0.5.3/include
	$ opencdk-config --libs
		-lz -L/usr/local/opencdk-0.5.3/lib -lopencdk \
		-L/usr/local/libgcrypt-1.1.90/lib -lgcrypt \
		-L/usr/local/libgpg-error-0.5/lib -lgpg-error
	$

First note that -lz should appear last in this library list - for 
systems with a linker unable to reorder shared libraries itself, like 
old releases of IRIX or HP-UX.

Second it seems that gnutls-1.0.0 needs an external opencdk-0.5.2 
library. It won't build with an included opencdk library as it used to. 
This doesn't seem to be documented anywhere.

Finally, it seems the configure script doesn't put the compiler flags 
needed to include opencdk headers into Makefiles:

$ ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/gnutls-1.0.0
[...]
checking for opencdk-config... /usr/local/bin/opencdk-config
checking for libopencdk - version >= 0.5.2... yes
[...]
$ gmake
[...]

$

I had to work around thsi problem by setting CPPFLAGS:
	setenv CPPFLAGS -I/usr/local/opencdk/include
