Description Karsten Hopp 2006-07-10 09:16:28 EDT

Note: ldd can't handle dlopen'ed dependent libraries and these unresolved symbols
might be resolved by those. But this needs to be checked.
Reproducer: rpm -ql <packagename>| grep lib.*so | xargs ldd -r


db4-tcl-4.3.29-4
undefined symbol: Tcl_SetObjLength      (/usr/lib/libdb_tcl-4.3.so)
undefined symbol: Tcl_ListObjGetElements        (/usr/lib/libdb_tcl-4.3.so)
undefined symbol: Tcl_AddErrorInfo      (/usr/lib/libdb_tcl-4.3.so)
undefined symbol: Tcl_NewByteArrayObj   (/usr/lib/libdb_tcl-4.3.so)

Hi Karsten,

works for me on i386:

# rpm -ql db4 | grep lib.*so | xargs ldd -r

Ah, noticed you checked db4_tcl.

But worksforme anyway ;-)

# tclsh
% load /usr/lib/libdb_tcl-4.3.so
%

So that all symbols are corretly resolved.
