Greetings,
I was attempting to install a package (Scribus, but that's irrelevant) when I started getting errors on some libraries I know were installed (Qt4, also through the ports tree). To get right to the point it seems ld starts ignoring the hints after a while.
Two libraries, both in the same directory:
The directory in question appears in the hints as reported by ldconfig -r:
(<cr> added by me for legibility)
and a little farther down, both files appear in the list:
Here's the head-scratcher: any library at or above line 1074 is found by ld without any issues:
Any library below line 1074 is not:
Even though both libgcc.so and libquadmath.so exist in the same directory, one is found and one is not, as well as any other library listed below it. If I pass the -L flag with the appropriate directory to ld it will find the library in question, but this requires building a lot of ports manually and breaks portmaster/portupgrade. I use Xfce, so that's a lot of ports relying on Qt4 that no longer build automagically
Is there some limitation to ld that I should be aware of? Is it possible I misconfigured something somewhere? Is there some good, non-kludgy fix? Thank you for your time.
