[arch-general] Need help understanding new "make install" failures - libtool: install: error: relink `blah...la' ??

[David C. Rankin]

Guys,

  After the latest updates, I'm getting a number of package() "make install"
failures on packages that have, until now, packaged just fine. Is anybody else
experiencing this on packages you build? If so, do you know what is causing it
-- and how to fix?  I've searched and found that sometimes reordering the link
commands in the Makefile can help, but I can't figure out why things have
packaged just fine up until now and are now failing. Since everything built fine
with the build() command -- why the failure on package()??

  I've also read another solution is to do away with the .la files completely
and replace with a package config setup. However, before I try and tackle
something like that, I want to figure out what broke. The failures during "make
install" look like this (gwenview and tdegames examples:)

the failure:

/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -ltdeinit_gwenview
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
libtool: install: error: relink `gwenview.la' with the above command before
installing it

the preceding context:

libtool: relink: g++  -fPIC -DPIC -shared -nostdlib
/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/4.7.0/../../../../lib/crti.o

  libtdeinit_gwenview is right where it should be:

  Likewise, the kolf.la file is right where it should be. Anybody else seeing
something like this?
