[Solved] /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lgcrypt

kenorb · #1 December 6th, 2010, 15:59

Code:

> gcc -o conftest -I/usr/local/include conftest.c -lgcrypt
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lgcrypt
> ldconfig -r | grep gcrypt
	308:-lgcrypt.17 => /usr/local/lib/libgcrypt.so.17
	890:-lgcrypt.16 => /usr/local/lib/compat/pkg/libgcrypt.so.16
> ldd /usr/local/lib/libgcrypt.so.17
/usr/local/lib/libgcrypt.so.17:
	libgpg-error.so.0 => /usr/local/lib/libgpg-error.so.0 (0x800c00000)
	libintl.so.9 => /usr/local/lib/libintl.so.9 (0x800d04000)
	libiconv.so.3 => /usr/local/lib/libiconv.so.3 (0x800e0d000)
	libc.so.7 => /lib/libc.so.7 (0x800645000)
> pkg_info | grep gcrypt
libgcrypt-1.4.6     General purpose crypto library based on code used in GnuPG

Tried to reinstall libgcrypt, nothing.

Simply don't understand why FreeBSD don't allow me to compile simple code with -lgcrypt, even if it's installed and loaded.

Code:

% gcc -o blah -I/usr/local/include/ -L/usr/local/libs/ -lgcrypt blah.c

Sorry, the same:

Code:

> gcc -o blah -I/usr/local/include/ -L/usr/local/libs/ -lgcrypt blah.c
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lgcrypt

expl · #5 December 6th, 2010, 16:28

It is -L/usr/local/lib/ not -L/usr/local/libs/

Does work, thank you

What I've to do to be visible by default?
Shouldn't ldconfig provide final list of available and working options?

Code:

> gcc -print-search-dirs
install: /usr/libexec/
programs: =/usr/bin/:/usr/bin/:/usr/libexec/:/usr/libexec/:/usr/libexec/
libraries: =/usr/lib/:/usr/lib/

Oops.. Typo..

expl · #8 December 6th, 2010, 16:41

LD will not check 3rd party lib path (/usr/local/lib) only native library path (/usr/lib) by default.

kenorb · #9 December 6th, 2010, 16:48

Tried to made workaround by:

Code:

sudo ln -s /usr/local/lib/libgcrypt.so.17 /usr/lib/libgcrypt.so.17 && sudo ldconfig -R

But doesn't work as expected;/
Is there any FreeBSD version of ld.so.conf?

Found this:
http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/f...ne/001746.html

Quote:

During system startup ldconfig is passed the path set by "ldconfig_paths"
in /etc/defaults/rc.conf.

But gcc don't load that.

expl · #10 December 6th, 2010, 16:52

Thats because you need libgcrypt.a for linking, libgcrypt.so.x is for dynamic loading.

My configure script solved as well by following LDFLAGS:

Code:

> ./configure LDFLAGS="-L/usr/local/lib/"
