This was a common practice for me, too, until a few days ago. Since then
the tcl/tk/tix builds have been breaking with either ranlib not recognizing
the .so file format (???), or more recently,
rm -f libtk8.3.so
gcc -pipe -shared -o libtk8.3.so tk3d.o [... bunch of object files ...]
-Wl,-rpath,/home/pme/build/install-2001-09-21/lib:/usr/X11R6/lib

libtclstub8.3.a is right over in ../../tcl/unix. Why isn't that being
searched? Why am I the only one seeing this? :-)

Hmmmm, looks like this line should point to the build directory. I.E. it should
probably read -L/home/pme/build/build-2001-09-21/tcl/unix -ltclstub8.3

So far I've not seen it or heard of it from anybody else. I'm not sure
why ../../tcl/unix isn't being searched. But I'll try and find out....
What options are you running configure with?
Ian.

Yep. I changed it in the generated Makefile, and the build succeeded.
It's coming from the rules in configure.in which set MAKE_LIB,
TCL_LD_SEARCH_FLAGS, and TK_CC_SEARCH_FLAGS. The -L paths are taken
from (around line 205) LIB_RUNTIME_DIR, with colons replaced by ' -L'.
And the library's runtime directory is indeed install-2001-09-21/lib.
But that shouldn't be used for link-time searching, or at least not
by itself.
Hmmmmmm... *looks* Under Red Hat 7.0, libtclstub.8.3.a exists in /usr/lib.
Not under Debian. That would explain it. (Same goes for libitclstub.)
In fact, after I copied libtclstub8.3.a and libitclstub3.1.a into /usr/lib,
changed the RANLIB thing in the Makefile.in like I mentioned in my private
email, and regenerated the Makefile, the build passed.
Thanks very much for helping me with this.
Phil

GDB's and BINUTILS' combined CVS repository also contains a copy of
dejagnu, expect and tcl. Creating a source tree containing that and
GCC and then testing it is a very common pratice (well I thought it
was until now). Any changes Ian makes to tcl are going to directly
affect anyone using the src dejagnu to test GCC.
I suggested that Ian include gcc when posting updates so that all
interested parties were kept informed.

I'm utterly confused by those Tcl/Tk related messages of yours being
sent to gcc@gcc.gnu.org.
What is "the Tcl/Tk" upgrade you're referring to, and is it really
related to the (non-Redhat-internal) development of GCC?

Hi,
things are looking a lot better with Tcl/Tk upgrade.
The only thing left which doesn't work is wish83 on
Windows (stand-a-lone Tk). Insight works on Windows
so I'm not panicking about the wish83.exe problems.
I'm getting closer to fixing wish83 on Windows, my
time frame for fixing this is "some time hopefully
before the end of the month". Please let me know if
this effects you.
Otherwise thanks a million to all the people who provided
pointers, patches, advice, accounts, fixes and encouragement.
If you have any unresolved issues relating to the Tcl/Tk
upgrade, please contact me.
THANKS!
Ian.
