TJ 2.4.3: Test Timezone

[Zerlett]

Hi!

I tried to compile TaskJuggler 2.4.3 from source on an Gentoo/amd64
Linux machine (see below). However the test Timezone.tjp fails. The
docs did not say anything about what to do in that case. Suggestions
or experience with that anyone?

Thanks and best regards!

That's probably the glibc bug that got fixed with more recent versions
again. The TJ2 git version has a workaround for this:

Your guess was right, it does not occur with the git version :-)
...however apparently there is a "new" bug there:
# make
[...]
Making all in taskjuggler
make[2]: Entering directory `/usr/src/taskjuggler/taskjuggler'
/bin/sh ../libtool --silent --tag=CXX --mode=link g++ -o
taskjuggler main.o libtaskjuggler.la
g++: ./.libs/libtaskjuggler.so: No such file or directory
make[2]: *** [taskjuggler] Error 1
make[2]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/taskjuggler/taskjuggler'

make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1

make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/taskjuggler'

make: *** [all] Error 2

In taskjuggler/.libs there are two links
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 23 20. Nov 23:28 libtaskjuggler.so ->
libtaskjuggler.so.3.0.3
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 23 20. Nov 23:28 libtaskjuggler.so.3 ->
libtaskjuggler.so.3.0.3
but the link target, i.e. libtaskjuggler.so.3.0.3, does not exist.

Should I file a bug report for that or will this do?

I'm afraid this is a libtool bug. I've been told that there is a
updated version of libtool that no longer has this problem.
Unfortunately, a lot of distros have picked up the broken version and
have not yet released an update.

Oh dear :-(
But thanks for the info. I will wait for the next update of libtool
and file a bug if the problem persists ;-)
