Build failure latest git

[ed]

I had possibly confused things by using "git pull" so I deleted my
ledger directory and started again with
git clone git://github.com/jwiegley/ledger.git
cd ledger && ./acprep update -- --prefix=/usr/local

I discovered that ledger seems to have acquired a dependency on
Boost.IOStreams since I last built from git so I remade boost from
clean and repeated the acprep update after running acprep clean, now
it grinds for a while and finishes with:

LD ledger
Undefined symbols:

ld: symbol(s) not found

I included the filesystem library in the boost build. What is going
wrong?

Just for interest I did an acprep gitclean and tried again, same
outcome.

Hi Ed, please try again with current master. I removed an unintended
dependency from archive to session. I will also look further into
your problem today.

Can you check your libledger_data.a file, and see if it provides those
archive symbols? Also, open up your Makefile, remove the echo LD
portion that's hiding the actual link line, and run it again so I can
see exactly what's going to the linker...

Thanks, John

This is on a mac BTW, I should have said. Make output is:

returns 689 lines of output, is that what you meant?

I meant nm ./.libs/libledger_data.a | grep should_load

Oh sorry, have a different problem now, did a acprep update and can't
even build

Just pushed the fix for this, sorry.

Does this still happen with the latest on the 'next' branch? I no
longer refer to this symbol anywhere.

Ed, are you still seeing this link failure?

It failed when I did acprep update again. However, after acprep
gitclean; acprep update it worked.

Perhaps gitclean needs to be recommended more frequently?

Well, that's more than a little troubling! Acprep is supposed to do everything you require to stay up to date. I wonder what got left behind. Did "git status" say that anything was modified, thus preventing the git pull from updating the file?

Dunno, sorry, all evidence gone now
