1 | This file lists the known problems with libextractor on various | ||
2 | platforms. Let us know if you know more about it than we do. | ||
3 | |||
4 | GNU/Linux (x86): | ||
5 | - perfect, but with gcc 3.3 you must turn off optimizations! | ||
6 | |||
7 | GNU/Linux (32-/64-bit PowerPC): | ||
8 | - perfect | ||
9 | |||
10 | GNU/Linux (Ultra Sparc): | ||
11 | - perfect | ||
12 | |||
13 | GNU/Linux (Alpha): | ||
14 | - perfect | ||
15 | |||
16 | GNU/Linux (x86_64, Fedora Core) | ||
17 | - set "CFLAGS=-fPIC" before running configure | ||
18 | |||
19 | FreeBSD (x86): | ||
20 | - perfect | ||
21 | |||
22 | OpenBSD 3.8: | ||
23 | - Chan Siu Ming <namely_void@yahoo.co.uk> writes: | ||
24 | - libtool is good to have | ||
25 | - OpenBSD 3.8 also doesn't have CODESET in langinfo.h (used in about three places.) I'm not sure how to cleanly overcome this. | ||
26 | - for some reason, convert.a is linked with a static version of libiconv.a, so that convert.a ends up containing convert.o | ||
27 | and libiconv.a, which confuses the linker, because archives aren't supposed to contain other archives. Removed the ICONV | ||
28 | stuff from convert_la_LDFLAGS in some Makefiles and it seemed to get past that. | ||
29 | |||
30 | - NetBSD: | ||
31 | - unknown | ||
32 | |||
33 | OS X (10.3, PowerPC): | ||
34 | - LIBEXTRACTOR_PREFIX needs to be set properly for 'make check' | ||
35 | - (X)PDF extractor does not work properly, especially with gcc 3.x | ||
36 | (use the C-based pdfextractor (default now anyway)) | ||
37 | |||
38 | Solaris 8 (SunOS 5.8, Sparc SunFire 880): | ||
39 | - unknown | ||
40 | |||
41 | Solaris 10 | ||
42 | - reported success for 0.5.11 with minor modifiations (on LE mailinglist, 2006/3/27) | ||
43 | |||
44 | MinGW: | ||
45 | - linking against libstdc++ fails | ||
46 | my workaround: rename libstdc++.la | ||
47 | Gerrit P. Haase writes: | ||
48 | Linking -lstdc++ with the provided libtool fails also on Cygwin, this | ||
49 | is a problem with libtool, there is unfortunately no flag to tell | ||
50 | libtool how to do its job on Cygwin and it seems that it cannot be the | ||
51 | default to set the library check to 'pass_all'. Workaround as you | ||
52 | suggested doesn't work on Cygwin, IIRC. I use a patched libtool for | ||
53 | these kind of problems. | ||
54 | |||
55 | Cygwin: | ||
56 | - compiles fine after touch src/plugins/printable/config.h | ||
57 | - plugins do not load (weird Win32 error code) | ||
