From: John Polstra To: current@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: OBJLINK=yes breaks make buildworld Sender: owner-freebsd-current@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Make buildworld is broken for the OBJLINK=yes case, and it may have been broken for quite some time. When the a.out legacy libraries are built, the object files end up in the source tree, because the "obj" links no longer point to the right place. Furthermore, these object files don't get removed when you do a make clean or a make cleandir. I don't have a fix. I never use OBJLINK. As far as I'm concerned, a suitable fix would be to eliminate that option altogether. This is the cause of one kind of libpam build failure, namely the one that ends like this: /usr/src/lib/libpam/libpam/../modules/pam_cleartext_pass_ok/libpam_cleartext_pas s_ok.a: object /usr/src/lib/libpam/libpam/../mo dules/pam_cleartext_pass_ok/libpam_cleartext_pass_ok.a(pam_cleartext_pass_ok.o) in archive is not object *** Error code 1 Thanks to Jon Hamilton for suggesting the OBJLINK connection.
