Error compiling spatialite 4.1.x in Debian

[Samuel Mesa]

Hi, I get the following error compiling the source code in linux debian:

Hi Samuel,

I'm sorry but I cannot confirm this issue.

I've pedantically replicated your example twice using both Debian
Squeeze
and Debian Wheezy (Virtual Machines, x86 32 bit).

on Squeeze:
-----------
wget
http://www.gaia-gis.it/gaia-sins/libspatialite-sources/libspatialite-4.1.0.tar.gz
tar zxvf libspatialite-4.1.0.tar.gz
./configure --enable-epsg --enable-freexl --disable-geosadvanced

--enable-geos --enable-proj --enable-geocallbacks --enable-mathsql
CFLAGS=-I$HOME/usr/include LDFLAGS=-L$HOME/usr/lib

make -> full success

(*) on Squeeze I've been forced to declare --disable-geosadvanced
because this system ships a really old GEOS version


on Wheezy:
----------
wget
http://www.gaia-gis.it/gaia-sins/libspatialite-sources/libspatialite-4.1.0.tar.gz
tar zxvf libspatialite-4.1.0.tar.gz

./configure --enable-epsg --enable-freexl --enable-geosadvanced
--enable-geos --enable-proj --enable-geocallbacks --enable-mathsql
CFLAGS=-I$HOME/usr/include LDFLAGS=-L$HOME/usr/lib

make -> full success

So standing things I can simply suppose that there is some unknown
problem specifically affecting your local system.

please note: both FP_NORMAL and FP_ZERO are expected to be declared
in /usr/include/math.h; and spatialite.c does actually requires
#include <math.h>

What is in this directory?

Do you have some special / strange C or C++ library headers installed? In
particular, is there a non-standard cmath or math.h header in the include
path?

Sorry for opening this post, after trying again, I have managed to compile SpatiaLite v4.2 disabling option --disable-mathsql.

I do not know what features I lose by disabling this option?

regards,

Samuel Mesa.

The Debian packaging for SpatiaLite 4.2.0 contains a patch to link libm which likely addresses the issue you're running into:

http://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/pkg-grass/spatialite.git/tree/debian/patches/03-link-m.patch?h=experimental

We're too late to get a transition for SpatiaLite 4.2.0 on the road, so the next Debian stable release will contains SpatiaLite 4.1.1.

Hi Samuel,

by disabling "mathsql" you'll implicitly suppress many useful
trigonometric, logarithmic and statistic SQL functions:

ACOS(), ASIN(), ATAN(), CEIL(), COS(), COT(), DEGREES(),
EXP(), FLOOR(), LOG(), LOG2(), LOG10(), PI(), POW(),
RADIANS(), SIGN(), SIN(), SQRT(), STDDEV_POP(),
STDDEV_SAMP(), VAR_POP(), VAR_SAMP(), TAN()

Hi,

I saw the same issue today (2015-10-03), and turned out that my version of gcc was old, 4.1.2.  manpage for fpclassify for the system said I have to not only have -lm to compile but need -std=c99 to compile.  So I set CFLAGS to include -std=c99, it seems to compile.

Hi Yosuke,

if I'm not wrong gcc 4.1.2 was released on February 2007, about
eight/nine years ago.
Debian 8.0 Jessie currently ships gcc 4.9.2, Fedora 22 gcc 5.1.1

I'm not really sure if a 2007 obsolete version could still be
considered representative of what "modern" gcc is.
