Hello All,
I was not able to get gcell to compile (trunk 8156). I had to add the
patch
included to get gcell to compile. Has anyone been able to get this to
compile without modification? Any other ideas on what I may be doing
wrong?
Without the patch I get the following error

Tim,
What distribution and version are you running on the build machine?
FC7 or F8?
I’ll try to reproduce it on my end, though last time I checked it
worked.
I’m assuming you configured with:
./configure-cell-cross --prefix=/mnt/share/cell-install

I am using Ubuntu Gutsy on the build machine; I am breaking one of the
“shalls” from the cross compile guide. I had been able to compile the trunk
for some time targeting both FC7 and FC8 on the PS3 without problem. This
was the first time I tried the gcell part. Until you asked I forgot about
the FC7/8 requirement. If it is an easy fix to make this work with Debian
derived distributions that would be a bonus.
The FC7/8 requirement is mostly driven by the SDK. Sounds like you’ve
worked around that part OK.
I think the failure is a “feature” of the broken libtool on
Debian/Ubuntu. I don’t it’s specific to gcell, just that that is
where you’re seeing it.
I suspect that if you do a non cross compile of GNU Radio, but specify a
non-standard value for --prefix (e.g…, /mnt/share/x86-install) you’ll
get a similar error, only at some other place in the build.

Yes. It all works fine as long as I add the “rpath” stuff to the
Makefile.am in “gcell/src/apps”
OK.
Just for the record, there’s no chance in hell that I’ll accept a
patch that codes a -rpath into *_LDFLAGS

It may be libtool but I am not sure it is the same problem that we saw
before. The gcell tree is the only place I see this. It is when
linking to
existing libraries on the PS3 “/mnt/cell-root/usr/lib” that the problem
shows up. By doing a configure disabling gcell the cross build
completes.
I don’t think the work around in the wiki
http://gnuradio.org/trac/wiki/UbuntuInstall#BrokenlibtoolonDebianandUbuntu
is applicable here. I didn’t think the cross compiler should care what
is
in ld.so.conf. Just for kicks I did add a line /mnt/cell-root/usr/lib
and
/mnt/share/cell-install/lib to ld.so.conf and ran ldconfig just to see
if it
would build; it did not. Adding the lines caused a bunch of link errors
against cppunit. This just illustrates how little I understand some of
the
finer details of the build process.
Yes. It all works fine as long as I add the “rpath” stuff to the
Makefile.am in “gcell/src/apps”
OK.

I was not expecting you to apply it as a patch. I only sent it to
better illustrate what I was seeing and to provide a temporary work
around
for others.

I concur. That’s a work-around for a broken libtool on a native build.
OK.

Thanks. Glad to have the info.
I have recently seen an issue with cross compilation under F8 on
x86_64 using libtool 1.5.24. Not exactly sure about the problem or
fix. Just wanted to add it to the mix.
