Description Kaj J. Niemi 2003-07-12 22:30:56 UTC

Description of problem:
I haven't got the faintest idea should I file this against glibc or perl so I'll
try glibc first...

After compile DateTime <http://search.cpan.org/author/DROLSKY/DateTime-0.13/>, a
module providing ways of calculating dates/times the following occurs:

The DateTime.so is getting linked with "gcc  -shared DateTime.o  -o
blib/arch/auto/DateTime/DateTime.so" which works out nicely.

However attempting to use it results in the error below. A short nm on various
libraries (/usr/lib/perl5/5.8.0/i386-linux-thread-multi/CORE/libperl.so, etc.)
ends up with no address for the symbol

% nm /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.0/i386-linux-thread-multi/CORE/libperl.so | grep _Jv
         w _Jv_RegisterClasses

All glibc libraries in /lib/tls/ have the same information.

A quick google search returns the following from the gcc-ml:

Similar problem from March 2003,

Answer to his problem <http://sources.redhat.com/ml/binutils/2003-03/msg00450.html>

Wouldn't this mean that a weak symbol should be ignored if missing?

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
glibc-2.3.2-57

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. perl Makefile.PL
2. make
3. make install
4. perl -e 'use DateTime;'
    

Actual Results:  Can't load
'/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.0/i386-linux-thread-multi/auto/DateTime/DateTime.so'
for module DateTime:
/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.0/i386-linux-thread-multi/auto/DateTime/DateTime.so:

I get this to compile on the few RH 7.3, RH 8 systems I tried on.

SRPM to reproduce the problem easier

Ok. The reason why "make test" works but the production version doesn't is
simple.. the library files haven't been processed (stripped, etc.) by the rpm
build process yet.

To get a working DateTime.so one just has to define

%define debug_package	       %{nil}

Commenting the above or setting it to true (1) results in a weird .so file (as
previously described)

I'm sort of confused how the heck something like this can break everything and
result in really interesting errors. I'm fine with not having the .so stripped
but would be inclined to believe that this is the symptom of some deeper
underlying problem.

Comment 5 Kaj J. Niemi 2003-07-15 12:40:17 UTC 
Problem got fixed by elfutils 0.84-3. Thanks guys.

Marking component elfutils (instead of glibc), resolving as RAWHIDE.
