Package: texlive-bin
Version: 2007-8
Severity: serious

Justification: no longer builds from source

The version of libtool in .../libs/teckit is buggy (rant about libtool
in general elided ;-).  Specifically, it directs g++ to link in
certain system objects that the compiler would normally supply itself,
but neglects to tell the compiler not to introduce its own instances
of the same objects.  As a result, texlive-bin FTBFS on amd64 (and
presumably other architectures as well):

Hm, I'm curious why this happens now.  The only changes to the build
process that we made between -7 and -8 was to add the configure options
"--enable-shared --enable-ipc".  We don't want to create a shared teckit
library, nor link dynamically to that code.  Hell, did we do that?

No, it seems it is statically linked into xetex.

Have you checked that it works, and on which architectures?  Maybe it's
safer to patch teckit to ignore --enable-shared?

We'll do our best, but I'd like to make sure it's the right fix.

Just the former, AFAICT.

Right, the only thing that uses TECkit is xetex, which explicitly
links statically against ../../libs/teckit/lib/.libs/libTECkit.a.
(OTOH, it could stand to link dynamically against libkpathsea.)

I ran a test build on my amd64 machine and encountered no errors.

It looks like it should be possible to avoid patching anything by
changing --enable-shared to --enable-shared=default (as TECkit and
other third-party libraries set PACKAGE); the corresponding test build
is still in progress, but I'll be sure to let you know how it goes.

Understood.

Thanks!

This less intrusive approach does, in fact, also work.

[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

Hi Jonathan,

the attached mail is a bug report we received for our Debian packages,
the TECkit library didn't build any more on 64bit architectures.  It was
triggered because we configured texlive with "--enable-shared" to build
libkpathsea.so.4.0.0.  The easy solution was to use
"--enable-shared=default", so that it is ineffective in the directories
for other libs, like TECkit.  But there's also a patch in the report
which allows to compile with "--enable-shared" in TECkit.  I'm not sure
it's useful for you, but just in case, here is it.

(Is it okay to contact you directly, or should we send xetex-related
things to the mailing list?  Is that possible without subscribing?)

Regards, Frank

I don't think you can send to the list without subscribing, AFAIK.  
But a direct report like this is fine; I appreciate receiving the  
report & patch, and will look into including this in the main sources  
if it seems to work as expected for me.

(We're hoping to have a proper issue tracking system one of these  
days......)
