Please link nss_ldap with lpthread (fixes ocal)
Last modified: 2007-11-30 17:11:02 EST
Description of problem: The Oracle Calendar client fails when run on a FC3 system that uses nss_ldap with the following error: "symbol __pthread_atfork, version GLIBC_2.0 not defined in file libpthread.so.0 with link time reference" Linking nss_ldap with libpthread (added to SHAREDLIBS in the spec file) fixes this problem. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): nss_ldap-220 How reproducible: Alway Steps to Reproduce: 1. Configure /etc/nsswitch.conf to use ldap for passwd 2. Stop nscd (it crashes faster that way) 3. Start ocal Actual results: symbol __pthread_atfork, version GLIBC_2.0 not defined in file libpthread.so.0 with link time reference Expected results: No error Additional info:
Linking a demand-loaded module against libpthread is not expected to work in cases where the application which loads the module isn't already linked with libpthread, so I have to close this can't-fix. If these are both the nss_ldap and glibc packages from FC3, then the fix needs to be made some other way.
