executing the compile line by hand without the -B,symbolic gives the following:

Comment 4

[Wan-Teh Chang]

This bug is related to bug 91224.

The bug and bug 91224 are caused by the same reason:
NSS build system does not support GNU ld.  This
imposes two limitations.
1. Your PATH must be set up so that the Solaris ld
   is picked up.  I have a patch attached to bug 91224
   that invokes the Solaris ld with its full pathname
   to remove the dependency on PATH.
2. Your gcc must be configured to use the Solaris ld.
   This is the problem you are encountering.

Is your gcc configured to invoke /sup/bin/ld, or does
it invoke ld and your PATH is set up so that /sup/bin/ld
is picked up?

I will attach a patch that build libfreebl_hybrid_3.so
with the Solaris ld (specified by its full pathname).

Comment 5

[Wan-Teh Chang]

Attachment: Proposed patch. Use Solaris ld (with full pathname) to make shared libraries.

Comment 6

more info

Excellent.  I'm trying now with
/sup/build/mozilla/mybuild > ../configure --disable-tests --disable-debug --enab
le-optimize --enable-crypto --disable-xprint --without-gnu-ld --with-gnu-nm --wi
th-gnu-as --with-as=/sup/bin/as --with-ld=/usr/ccs/bin/ld --with-nm=/sup/bin/nm 
--prefix=/sup

This still fails though!  THe build seems to use the first 'ld' in the
path (/sup/bin/) and ignore the --with-ld= option.


So:
/sup/build/mozilla/mybuild/security/manager > make LD=/usr/ccs/bin/ld
...this fails with:

Changing the line a little by hand to remove commas etc. gave:

I have gzip, gunzip and unzip but no zip.  This should be detected at
configure time!


Please make the configure for NSS fail if it detects GNU ld then; that
way people won't get confused by compile time failures.  Configure
failures make you look in one place, build failures in another.

Comment 7

[Nils Lohner]

building at this level with the following command finished off the nss section
building:

/sup/build/mozilla/mybuild/security/manager > make LD=/usr/ccs/bin/ld

If the patch correctly invokes sun's ld and doesn't result in the 'illegal
options' (see previous comment) I'd suggest applying it and consider it as
probably fixing the bug.

Thanks.

[jag (Peter Annema)]

Also see bug 91224.

Comment 9

[Wan-Teh Chang]

I read this bug and bug 91224 carefully again and
convinced myself that this bug is a duplicate of
bug 91224.

*** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 91224 ***
