Thread: Linking issues building pgAdmin3 v1.4.2 on Suse 10.0

Hi all,<br />  I'm having a really hard time getting pgAdmin3 to build on Suse.  I've managed to get wxWidgets 2.6.3
built,and built and installed the ogl and stc widgets from the contrib directory.  Pgadmin's build seems to work fine,
rightup until the linking stage, when it somehow loses all its libraries.  From perusing this list's archives, this
problemis not entirely uncommon. <br /><br />For wx-widgets, I ran configure as such:<br />./configure --with-gtk
--enable-gtk2--enable-mimetype=yes --disable-debug --enable-unicode<br /><br />For pgAdmin3, I ran plain old configure,
andthen alternately tried --enable-static (which failed, evidently because wxWidgets was not compiled with
--enabled-static)<br /><br /><br />Below is  the output of make all.  What's odd is that the linker seems to be getting
theflags that correspond to the output of wx-config.  Does anyone have any ideas for how to get ld recognize the wx
libraries?<br /><br />Many thanks for any help or ideas,<br /><br /><br />Eric<br /><br /><br />make  all-recursive<br

Hi!

Which version of Suse is that? I've had some problems also but have so
far been able to resolve them on all versions of Suse I've used: 9.3,
10.0, 10.1.

Only with Suse 9.3 have I built wx from source, on 10.x I use wx
available from Yast. With that there were no problems on 10.0, on 10.1 I
get lots of GCC warnings about breaking strict rules, otherwise it seems
to work.

From memory, the general procedure I use is as follows:

* add /usr/lib to /etc/ld.so.conf, then run ldconfig
* install all needed packages in order to build pgadmin (10.1 comes with
libxml2 2.6.23 and libxslt 1.1.15 which both cause errors, I had to use
the latest versions to get it to work)
* build pgadmin

That is basically it. I can try to help if you have any other questions.

Regards,
Miha
