If I'm not wrong and I read & understood the changelog correctly,
that "feature" of "libintl.so.3" was already removed in 2001:
- 0.10.40 - libintl is now LGPLed (it was GPLed). Note that RHL
uses the glibc version, and don't include libintl from gettext.
and this would match with the introduced and up to gettext-0.14.1-2.1
existing "rm -f $RPM_BUILD_ROOT%{_libdir}/{libintl.a,libintl.la}" in
the spec file.
But I'm also not sure.
Thanks for your testing on gettext. libintl.so is 'back' because after 0.14.1-2.1 we have enabled shared libraries. Before it was not affect other application as libintl is staticly linked to gettext and also removed static libs. So for now I used --without-included-gettext to avoid the need of libintl.so and also remove preloadable_libintl.so. Would you able to test 0.14.1-6 in rawhide if possible? Thanks! Leon, thanks you very much for your great work: --- snipp --- # ldd /usr/bin/php | grep intl # --- snapp --- Now it is fixed for me... I must have missed something here:
[root@tornado fedora]# rpm -q php
php-4.3.7-1
[root@tornado fedora]# rpm -q gettext
gettext-0.14.1-7
[root@tornado fedora]# /usr/bin/php -v
/usr/bin/php: error while loading shared libraries: libintl.so.3:
cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[root@tornado fedora]#
[root@tornado fedora]# ldd /usr/bin/php | grep intl
libintl.so.3 => not found
[root@tornado fedora]#
Still seems broken?
It isn't really broken, but php-4.3.7 only needs urgently a rebuild against the current gettext to fix this issue, I'll write a mail to Joe Orton, the maintainer of this package. I have contacted Joe a while ago and php will be rebuilt soon. |
Description of problem: At first, I don't really know whether this is a bug or a feature ;-) I built the latest gettext and installed it (including gettext- devel). Now, all new rebuilded programs/applications (in my example below, php) are linked now against "libintl.so.3" - why and is this really needed? So the older applications/programs aren't linked against "libintl.so.3" and work, too... --- snipp --- # ldd /usr/bin/php | grep intl libintl.so.3 => /usr/lib/libintl.so.3 (0x400fd000) # --- snapp --- Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): >= gettext-0.14.1-3 How reproducible & Steps to Reproduce: Everytime, see above. Actual results: Why are the applications linked against libintl.so.3 and is this really needed - so we lived without that good, before... ;-) Could you please check, whether that new behaviour is really correct? Thank you :) Expected results: Veryfication and resulting answer... Additional info: If that linking is a stupid behaviour please remove that "feature" immediately. Thank you.
