Description Matthias Saou 2003-12-10 12:11:30 UTC
From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.4.1)
Gecko/20031114

Description of problem:
The XFree86-devel package contains the following symlinks :

/usr/X11R6/lib/libGL.so
/usr/X11R6/lib/libGLU.so

But the current dependencies allow a situation where XFree86-devel is
installed but not XFree86-Mesa-libGLU (verified), and possibly not
XFree86-Mesa-libGL either. In such case, it seems linking works but
gives unresolved symbols in the applications.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
XFree86-4.3.0-42

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install a minimal Fedora Core system (no X)
2. Install XFree86-devel and its dependencies
3. Try to compile an application which needs to be linked against
libGLU, for instance perl-SDL
    

Actual Results: 
/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.1/i386-linux-thread-multi/auto/SDL_perl/SDL
_perl.so: undefined symbol: _Znwj at
/usr/lib/perl5/5.8.1/i386-linux-thread-multi/DynaLoader.pm line 229.

Expected Results:  The library should be linked fine.

Additional info:

When adding XFree86-Mesa-libGLU to the build requirements, the
resulting SDL_perl.so module works fine.
