TS 6.1/Perl 5.8.2 module make problems on Solaris

jkepler

Has anyone encountered problems building and installing Perl modules under TS 6.1 with perl 5.8.2? I first encountered it with DBD: Smiley Surprised

racle but I get the same problem with every module I attempt to make. I keep getting an error when I run ‘make’ : “/usr/ccs/bin/ld: illegal option — E”. This didn't occur before the 6.1 upgrade.

I found a mention on another bulletin board of someone else getting "/usr/ccs/bin/ld: illegal option -- E" when running make from a perl generated Makefile on Solaris 5.8.

"Sun put out a patch to their linker (ld) that breaks the Configure script for perl. It checks for a specific info string output from the ld command, and decides from that if you are using Sun's ld, or the Gnu ld. Since that patch changes the output of the ld command's info string, Configure thinks you are using Gnu's ld, and hence sets up the Gnu ld options to pass to Sun's ld. Obviously, this doesn't work. Sun has since fixed it, by another patch that puts back the old info string in their ld.
The patch to ld that broke this is 109147-14. The 109147-16 patch fixes it again."

But we have a more recent version of patch 109147 (109147-27). Anyone have any ideas?

Here's an example (error is at the end):

I think it's the linker and not perl...

GCC searches the PATH for an assembler and a loader, but it only does so after searching a directory list hard-coded in the GCC executables or will take the one defined when you compiled gcc for the first time.Check with the 'gcc -v' command to see if the flag --with-ld is there.

If you have the flag in gcc and that's not the correct one then the best thing is to re-compile gcc without the flag.
If you don't have the flag then change the configure and the ld path if none or check the path of the that is used.

For info :
If the flag is not there GCC will search the PATH for an assembler and a loader, but it only does so after searching a directory list hard-coded in the GCC executables.To get this list you can do : gcc -print-search-dirs | grep '^programs:' and if there is no ld there the one that will be surely used will be the one displayed by the following command : which ld

hope that helps...

I ran into this problem recently and found that I could modify the specs file to fix it - in my environment this was: /opt/csw/gcc3/lib/gcc-lib/sparc-sun-solaris2.8/3.3.3/specs and I changed all occurrances of /usr/ccs to be /usr/local (where I have all the GNU stuff symlinked into).

Seems like modifying the specs file would definitely fix this. As a temporary solution (just to build) I renamed solaris' /usr/ccs/ld and symlinked gnu /usr/local/ld to /usr/ccs/ld. Everything built, and then I moved everything back. I was unsure if I would mess up anything else on the system, so I didn't make any permanent changes.

Well,

this is one of a number of examples that moving to perl 5.8.2 has introduced the need to re-validate many existing perl scripts...

I don't think this issue is specific to Perl - it's more specific to installing the GNU compiler / linker software on Solaris and getting it to work - regardless of what you are attempting to build (in this case, a Perl module, but it could just as easily have been some other 3rd-party product -- and none of this is directly related to Interwoven...)
