Bug 136626 – WEbKitGTK 2.5.3 - undefined references on build

• Status: RESOLVED
• Resolution: WORKSFORME
• Component: WebKitGTK

[Dominique Leuenberger]

While building webkitgtk 2.5.3, the build on openSUSE aborts with:

[ 4158s] /home/abuild/rpmbuild/BUILD/webkitgtk-2.5.3/Source/WebKit2/WebProcess/gtk/WebGtkInjectedBundleMain.cpp:34: undefined reference to `WebKit::WebGtkExtensionManager::shared()'
[ 4158s] /home/abuild/rpmbuild/BUILD/webkitgtk-2.5.3/Source/WebKit2/WebProcess/gtk/WebGtkInjectedBundleMain.cpp:34: undefined reference to `WebKit::WebGtkExtensionManager::initializ
e(OpaqueWKBundle const*, void const*)'
[ 4158s] collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status

What's the architecture? x86? amd64? What are the build (cmake) options that you are using?

[Dominique Leuenberger]

I saw this on i586 and x86_64

the standard %cmake macro used on openSUSE expands to:

    /usr/bin/cmake .. \
        -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX:PATH=/usr \
        -DCMAKE_INSTALL_LIBDIR:PATH=/usr/lib64 \
        -DINCLUDE_INSTALL_DIR:PATH=/usr/include \
        -DLIB_INSTALL_DIR:PATH=/usr/lib64 \
        -DSYSCONF_INSTALL_DIR:PATH=/etc \
        -DSHARE_INSTALL_PREFIX:PATH=/usr/share \
        -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=None \
        -DCMAKE_C_FLAGS="${CFLAGS:--O2 -g -m64 -fmessage-length=0 -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 -fstack-protector -funwind-tables -fasynchronous-unwind-tables} -DNDEBUG" \
        -DCMAKE_CXX_FLAGS="${CXXFLAGS:--O2 -g -m64 -fmessage-length=0 -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 -fstack-protector -funwind-tables -fasynchronous-unwind-tables} -DNDEBUG" \
        -DCMAKE_Fortran_FLAGS="${FFLAGS:--O2 -g -m64 -fmessage-length=0 -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 -fstack-protector -funwind-tables -fasynchronous-unwind-tables} -DNDEBUG" \
        -DCMAKE_EXE_LINKER_FLAGS="-Wl,--as-needed -Wl,--no-undefined -Wl,-z,now" \
        -DCMAKE_MODULE_LINKER_FLAGS="-Wl,--as-needed -Wl,--no-undefined -Wl,-z,now" \
        -DCMAKE_SHARED_LINKER_FLAGS="-Wl,--as-needed -Wl,--no-undefined -Wl,-z,now" \
%if "lib64" == "lib64" 
        -DLIB_SUFFIX=64 \
%endif 
        -DCMAKE_SKIP_RPATH:BOOL=ON \
        -DCMAKE_VERBOSE_MAKEFILE:BOOL=ON \
        -DBUILD_SHARED_LIBS:BOOL=ON \
        -DBUILD_STATIC_LIBS:BOOL=OFF \
        -DCMAKE_COLOR_MAKEFILE:BOOL=OFF \
        -DCMAKE_INSTALL_DO_STRIP:BOOL=OFF \
        -DCMAKE_MODULES_INSTALL_DIR=/usr/share/cmake/Modules \
        -DCMAKE_USER_MAKE_RULES_OVERRIDE="/usr/share/cmake/Modules/opensuse_rules.cmake"


(
for now I worke around it by overwriting 
  -DCMAKE_EXE_LINKER_FLAGS="-Wl,--as-needed -Wl,-z,now" \
  -DCMAKE_MODULE_LINKER_FLAGS="-Wl,--as-needed -Wl,-z,now" \
  -DCMAKE_SHARED_LINKER_FLAGS="-Wl,--as-needed -Wl,-z,now"

)

Could it be that it's not using the symbols file? There should be something like -Wl,--version-script,${CMAKE_MODULE_PATH}/gtksymbols.filter

I can build 2.6.x without any of these, check if you have the version script somewhere in the command-line that fails, I have this:

-Wl,--version-script,Source/cmake/gtksymbols.filter

Closing since this looks quite old.
