From: Jan Engelhardt Date: 2013-11-22 08:20:11.934094533 +0100 According to Werner Fink, the libraries' DT_SONAME must be libXaw{,3d}.so.{6,7,8} and that we cannot cheat our way with symlinks or otherwise the runtime linker would complain, though this has never been corroborated by some program output. (If you have it, paste it here in the description.) On the other hand, the absence (so far) of a runtime linker complaint is observable on openSUSE 12.3's "xaw3dd" package where we did in fact use symlinks. ares07:~> ldd /usr/bin/xterm | grep Xaw libXaw.so.7 => /usr/lib64/Xaw3d/libXaw.so.7 (0x00007fe219b67000) ares07:~> readelf -a /usr/lib64/Xaw3d/libXaw.so.7 | grep SONAME 0x000000000000000e (SONAME) Library soname: [libXaw.so.7] ares07:~> xterm xterm: Xt error: Can't open display: xterm: DISPLAY is not set --- src/Makefile.am | 22 +++++++++++++++++++++- 1 file changed, 21 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) Index: libXaw3d-1.6.2/src/Makefile.am =================================================================== --- libXaw3d-1.6.2.orig/src/Makefile.am +++ libXaw3d-1.6.2/src/Makefile.am @@ -1,4 +1,8 @@ -lib_LTLIBRARIES = libXaw3d.la +# The .la file with newest SOVERSION should come last, +# so that it "wins" during `make install`. +lib_LTLIBRARIES = xaw6/libXaw3d.la xaw7/libXaw3d.la libXaw3d.la +xawdir = ${libdir}/Xaw3d +xaw_LTLIBRARIES = xaw6/libXaw.la xaw7/libXaw.la libXaw.la AM_YFLAGS = -d -p LayYY @@ -73,6 +77,22 @@ libXaw3d_la_LIBADD = \ libXaw3d_la_LDFLAGS = -version-info 8:0:0 -no-undefined +libXaw_la_SOURCES = ${libXaw3d_la_SOURCES} +libXaw_la_LIBADD = ${libXaw3d_la_LIBADD} +libXaw_la_LDFLAGS = ${libXaw3d_la_LDFLAGS} +xaw6_libXaw3d_la_SOURCES = ${libXaw3d_la_SOURCES} +xaw6_libXaw3d_la_LIBADD = ${libXaw3d_la_LIBADD} +xaw6_libXaw3d_la_LDFLAGS = ${libXaw3d_la_LDFLAGS} -version-info 6:0:0 +xaw6_libXaw_la_SOURCES = ${libXaw3d_la_SOURCES} +xaw6_libXaw_la_LIBADD = ${libXaw3d_la_LIBADD} +xaw6_libXaw_la_LDFLAGS = ${libXaw3d_la_LDFLAGS} -version-info 6:0:0 +xaw7_libXaw3d_la_SOURCES = ${libXaw3d_la_SOURCES} +xaw7_libXaw3d_la_LIBADD = ${libXaw3d_la_LIBADD} +xaw7_libXaw3d_la_LDFLAGS = ${libXaw3d_la_LDFLAGS} -version-info 7:0:0 +xaw7_libXaw_la_SOURCES = ${libXaw3d_la_SOURCES} +xaw7_libXaw_la_LIBADD = ${libXaw3d_la_LIBADD} +xaw7_libXaw_la_LDFLAGS = ${libXaw3d_la_LDFLAGS} -version-info 7:0:0 + BUILT_SOURCES = laygram.h dist_doc_DATA = README.XAW3D
