The latest edition of poor thewade's configure problems with cvs gem begins with our hero perched above a large precipious stairong downward into the depths of linker and compiler errors, and the frightening world of packages upon packages...
To re-present, my problem is that gem wont configure because the configure script gets errors (or maybe warnings?) with the GL libraries. Apparently the GL libraries are having some issue with libc_nonshared.a(elf-init.oS) where in function __libc_csu_init\': there is an undefined reference to__init_array_start'
This guy has my wierd problem when he tries to compile emacs: http://sources.redhat.com/ml/libc-alpha/2003-03/msg00119.html
And this guy seems to think this is a linker error, or that the x86 version of elf needs to be included in linking... http://sources.redhat.com/ml/libc-alpha/2003-03/msg00123.html
What should our hero do? Thanks for your help, I promise Ill stop spaming the list with my problem unless I find an answer on my own, at which case Ill tell you
Heres my glibc: [wade@transport Gnu]$ rpm -q glibc glibc-2.3.3-14
Thanks for your mercy, -thewithoutaclue
