4 Subject: [PATCH] Fix installation location of libffi
6 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
7 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
9 The libffi is currently declared as toolexeclib_LTLIBRARIES. In many
10 cases, toolexeclib libraries will be installed in /usr/lib, so it
11 doesn't make any difference.
13 However, with multilib toolchains, they get installed in a
14 subdirectory of /usr/lib/. For example, with a Sourcery CodeBench
15 PowerPC toolchain, if the e500mc multilib variant is used, the libffi
16 library gets installed in /usr/lib/te500mc/. This is due to the
17 following code in the configure script:
19 multi_os_directory=`$CC -print-multi-os-directory`
20 case $multi_os_directory in
21 .) ;; # Avoid trailing /.
22 *) toolexeclibdir=$toolexeclibdir/$multi_os_directory ;;
25 Once the library is installed in /usr/lib/te500mc/, nothing works
26 because this installation location is inconsistent with the
27 installation location declared in libffi.pc.
29 So, instead of using this bizarre toolexeclib_LTLIBRARIES, simply use
30 the more standard lib_LTLIBRARIES, which ensures that the libffi
31 library is always installed in /usr/lib.
