current trunk fails to link under Mac OSX

Added by Steve Cole over 12 years ago

Hi all,

I have checked out today's trunk and tried to build it with
make config
./configure
make

It does compile fine, but it fails to link with an error message
libtool: link: cannot find the library `'

I am mildly puzzled about the empty library name. Can anyone help me ?

Cheers,

Steve

Hi Steve,

Can you post the configuration summary that ./configure writes at the end and a bit of context before the error (in particular the libtool command that fails if it gets printed out)? Maybe that will give us a clue what library has evaporated. FWIW it compiles fine here on OS X 10.5 using the same steps.

Andreas
