Hi,
I have successfully built a subversion server and client for AIX 5.3.
I recently discovered that I need to build a statically linked version
of the client so that the dependencies do not need to be installed on
every AIX box I need the client installed on.
I have been running into problems though. Here are the steps I've
taken, followed by the error I'm receiving.
1) Install the following RPMs (as root), which can be downloaded from
gcc-4.0.0-1.aix5.3.ppc.rpm
libgcc-4.0.0-1.aix5.3.ppc.rpm
make-3.80-1.aix5.1.ppc.rpm
readline-4.3-2.aix5.1.ppc.rpm
zlib-1.2.2-4.aix5.1.ppc.rpm
2) Download the following files and store them in a new directory
called /svn/downloads.
openldap-2.3.24.tar.gz
openssl-0.9.8b.tar.gz
subversion-1.3.2.tar.gz
3) Run the attached bld-svn-client-static.sh script to build the
Subversion client.
When I run this, everything is fine up to this point. I try to
include enough text to give context as to where in the process we are.
The error is at the end.
Libraries have been installed in:
/svn/client-install/lib
If you ever happen to want to link against installed libraries
in a given directory, LIBDIR, you must either use libtool, and
specify the full pathname of the library, or use the `-LLIBDIR'
flag during linking and do at least one of the following:
- add LIBDIR to the `LIBPATH' environment variable
during execution
- use the `-Wl,
' linker flag
See any operating system documentation about shared libraries for
more information, such as the ld(1) and ld.so(8) manual pages.

Does anyone have any idea how to fix this? I found this post
() which seems
similar. Their suggestion is to rebuild gcc
specified, but I don't quite understand how to verify if my situation
is similar, and would prefer to not have to build gcc.
Thanks,
Justin

Well, adding -L/lib will tell it to look there, but you still need to
tell it to actually link it in. Perhaps adding -lC will help?
course, that assumes that libC.a is the C library, it could very well
be a c++ runtime library or something, like I said, I'm not an AIX
person.

course, that assumes that libC.a is the C library, it could very well

I found the symbols in /lib/libnsl.a. I also verified that I'm
passing -L/lib and -lnsl to gcc.

The error message says I should pass the -bloadmap or -bnoquiet option
to obtain more information, but I'm not sure how to pass options to ld
through gcc.

Here's the bld script attachment.

I'm pretty sure David Edelsohn either got subversion to build statically
on AIX, or determined it was impossible.

Dan(This guy is trying to build SVN with , and it doesn't

SVN on AIX definitely needs shared libraries disabled. I have
been able to build all SVN releases so far with configure options:

Berkeley DB was causing problems and I do not need to run an SVN server,
so I just disabled that part.

Also, it is very important to use Bash, not the default AIX shell,
to run configure, if you want it to complete in your lifetime.
