Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(MailNews Core :: Build Config, defect)

Description

[Ian Neal]

Pulled a few times in the last couple of days from trunk and done clobber builds but it keeps failing in TestMailCookie.cpp with the following error:
/usr/bin/ld: ../../../mozilla/dist/lib/libmozglue.a(double-conversion.o): undefined reference to symbol '__cxa_guard_acquire@@CXXABI_1.3'
/usr/bin/ld: note: '__cxa_guard_acquire@@CXXABI_1.3' is defined in DSO /usr/lib64/libstdc++.so.6 so try adding it to the linker command line
/usr/lib64/libstdc++.so.6: could not read symbols: Invalid operation
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make[6]: *** [TestMailCookie] Error 1
make[6]: Leaving directory `/home/gizmo/central/sm-opt/mailnews/base/test'
make[5]: *** [tools] Error 2

After issuing the following command:
/usr/bin/python2.7 /home/gizmo/central/comm-central/mozilla/config/pythonpath.py -I../../../mozilla/config /home/gizmo/central/comm-central/mozilla/config/expandlibs_exec.py --uselist --  /usr/bin/ccache gcc  -pedantic -Wall -W -Wno-unused -Wpointer-arith -Wcast-align -W -Wno-long-long -fno-strict-aliasing -pthread -pipe  -DNDEBUG -DTRIMMED -g -Os -freorder-blocks -finline-limit=50 -fomit-frame-pointer -o TestMailCookie TestMailCookie.o  -lpthread    -Wl,-rpath-link,/home/gizmo/central/sm-opt/mozilla/dist/bin:/usr/lib:/usr/local/lib:/lib -Wl,-rpath-link,/usr/local/lib  -Wl,--whole-archive /home/gizmo/central/sm-opt/mozilla/dist/lib/libmozglue.a -Wl,--no-whole-archive -rdynamic  -L../../../mozilla/dist/bin -L../../../mozilla/dist/lib /home/gizmo/central/sm-opt/mozilla/dist/lib/libxpcomglue_s.a -L/home/gizmo/central/sm-opt/mozilla/dist/bin -lxpcom -lmozalloc -L/home/gizmo/central/sm-opt/mozilla/dist/bin -lxpcom -lmozalloc -lxul  -L/home/gizmo/central/sm-opt/mozilla/dist/bin -lxpcom -lmozalloc -lxul  `/home/gizmo/central/sm-opt/mozilla/dist/sdk/bin/nspr-config --prefix=/home/gizmo/central/sm-opt/mozilla/dist --libdir=/home/gizmo/central/sm-opt/mozilla/dist/lib --libs`  -ldl -lm 

This happens on both Fedora 16 64-bit and Fedora 14 64-bit

I've tried building both SM and TB with the same failure.
My .mozconfig for each application has the following common lines in:
ac_add_options --enable-debugger-info-modules="yes"
ac_add_options --enable-optimizer="-O2 -gstabs+"
mk_add_options MOZ_MAKE_FLAGS="-j4"
ac_add_options --with-ccache=/usr/bin/ccache

Mine too, Fedora 16 64-bit and Fedora 17 Beta 64-bit

Comment 3

[Philip Chee]

<https://dev.openwrt.org/ticket/9235>
"the problem is caused by newer versions of gcc/binutils, which are trying to fix a potential pitfall by disallow implicit -l. (more detail here:  http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/UnderstandingDSOLinkChange ) Specifically, 'cc1-dummy' requires libstdc++, but doesn't reference it. Older versions of ld would "steal" libstdc++ via libgmpxx; newer versions, however, are disallowing that."

cc'ing some m-c people that might know if a similar issue has been fixed there (or needs to be)
