Description Dagobert Michelsen 2010-04-19 04:24:41 UTC

During configure time some flags are checked for inclusion, one of them is -pedantic. For the Sun Studio compiler this flag does not turn on pedantic mode, but triggers performance gathering. This would make adding the performance library during linking mandatory which is obviously not done. The resulting error is

current9s% /opt/studio/SOS12/SUNWspro/bin/cc -pg -ldl -G -z defs -h libspectre.so.1 -o .libs/libspectre.so.1.1.5  .libs/spectre-status.o .libs/spectre-document.o .libs/spectre-gs.o .libs/spectre-render-context.o .libs/spectre-device.o .libs/spectre-page.o .libs/spectre-exporter.o .libs/spectre-exporter-pdf.o .libs/spectre-exporter-ps.o .libs/spectre-utils.o .libs/ps.o   -L/opt/csw/lib -lgs -lc  -m32 -xarch=v8 -m32 -xarch=v8

Clearing SPECTRE_CFLAGS explicitly during build time solves the problem immediately.

Comment 1 Carlos Garcia Campos 2010-06-01 02:38:28 UTC

I've added a new configure option --enable-iso-c, disabled by default, that tries to use -ansi and -pedantic flags. 

Thanks for reporting.
