Darwin 1.4 (OS X 10.1) Broken Compile, Snapshot and 7.1.3

От
Alex Avriette
Дата:
I had a catastrophic crash on one of our webservers here and took the
opportunity to upgrade it. Unfortunately, after the upgrade, I am unable to
compile either 7.1.3 or the current snapshot of postgres.

The error I get is rather opaque:

/usr/bin/ld: -undefined error must be used when -twolevel_namespace is in
effect

This is in the final stretch of compiling, on libpq. I checked google for
it, and came up with three header files in an MIT Apple sourcetree. So this
strikes me as a particularly Darwinish failing. I also ran a recursive grep
on the postgres source tree and wasnt able to find -twolevel_namespace in
any of the Makefiles. This makes me think it is something external.

Anyone have an idea as to what is causing this? This box is down until
postgres comes back up. :-7

All we know at this point is that Apple changed something between 10.0.4
and 10.1.  If you want to look into it and figure out how to fix it,
that'd be great.

Attached is some possibly-relevant info that someone sent in recently.

Alex,

You might check the Fink mailing list, i believe this has been talked 
about but I cant remember which mail list.  But I believe Fink 
installs postgresql just fine on 10.1

http://sourceforge.net/projects/fink

I might have also see the discussion on the Darwin mail list.

http://lists.apple.com/archives/darwin-development/2001/Sep/19.html

has something like:
simply add -flat_namespace to the LDFLAGS.

In src/makefiles/Makefile.darwin, add -flat_namespace to CFLAGS_SL.
