Description Yao Qi 2006-09-26 01:52:29 UTC

Description of problem:
When we build 64-bit applications on ppc64, it fails,

/usr/bin/ld: skipping incompatible /usr/lib/libxml2.so when searching for -lxml2
/usr/bin/ld: skipping incompatible /usr/lib/libxml2.a when searching for -lxml2
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lxml2

There is a symbol link libxml2.so in /usr/lib, and the similar symbol link could
not be found in /usr/lib64/

Comment 1 Daniel Veillard 2006-09-26 07:57:00 UTC

Please check the libxml2 and libxml2-devel packages first, and report the
output of:
rpm -q libxml2 libxml2-devel
rpm -V libxml2 libxml2-devel

Comment 2 Yao Qi 2006-09-27 03:30:19 UTC

It seems that libxml2-devel for ppc64 is installed in default.

If I install libxml2-devel-2.6.26-2.1.1.ppc64.rpm, no such problem above anymore.

Comment 3 Daniel Veillard 2006-09-27 08:04:04 UTC

Okay, this was strange, if libxml2 devel package has a problem a very large
set of other packages would just break at compilation so it was looking unlikely.
