As far as I know, yes. This would be supported by the fact that you |
| 16 |
never saw it until you enabled the gcj flag. The only two *.la files |
| 17 |
that are broken on my system are also related to the gcj use flag being |
| 18 |
turned on. I was kind of surprised to find the age of this bug and see |
| 19 |
it still remain unfixed. My guess is that not too many people have this |
| 20 |
use flag enabled so it hasn't gotten a lot of attention and thus has |
| 21 |
mostly been forgotten. Just by way of additional help, here is the line |
| 22 |
for /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/4.3.2/libgij.la on my system that I |
| 23 |
have edited: |

# Libraries that this one depends upon. |
| 26 |
dependency_libs='/usr/lib64/gcc/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/4.3.2/libgcj.la |
| 27 |
-lpthread -lrt -ldl -lz' |
| 28 |
|
| 29 |
Note that the path to the correct .la file and the location of the |
| 30 |
file(s) you need to fix will depend on the version of gcc you are using. |
| 31 |
In my case it's version 4.3.2, but this will show the pattern you need |
| 32 |
to follow. The additional -l* libraries shown above are entries that |
| 33 |
existed before I updated the path to the libgcj.la file, so I left them |
| 34 |
alone. There are two files on my system, and I can't remember the name |
| 35 |
of the second one right now. It's not too difficult to pick out of the |
| 36 |
revdep-rebuild output, though. |
