I already mentioned that I can add '-rpath /usr/local/lib/gcc46' to my various projects. I can also build with -static to avoid rtld. One can also use LD_LIBRARY_PATH. The issue seems to be that lang/gcc will be installed after system start, and 'ldconfig -m' appends new shared libraries to the hints file. This means that libraries with the same name but different locations will be found via the order of the search path in the hints file, and one gets the wrong library. That is, with the following troutmask:root[256] ldconfig -r | grep libgcc_s 29:-lgcc_s.1 => /lib/libgcc_s.so.1 723:-lgcc_s.1 => /usr/local/lib/gcc46/libgcc_s.so.1 29 will be found before 723. While I can work around the issue, lang/gcc is used by a rather large boatload of ports during the building process and I suspect that a large number of FreeBSD users use lang/gcc for their everyday compiler. The question is how do we, the FreeBSD project, deal with this issue, so that the general user base does not get hit with it. There are a few solutions: 1) Set ldconfig_paths in /etc/rc.conf to cause ${PORTSDIR}/lib to be scanned before /lib and /usr/lib. 2) Use /etc/ld.so.conf to cause ${PORTSDIR}/lib to be scanned for /lib and /usr/lib. 3) Add a new option to ldconfig to prepend new libraries to the hints files and fix the ports to use this option instead of -m. 4) Suggestions from people that are brighter than I. -- Steve
