[GRASS-dev] Re: diglib and x86_64 problems

Hi William!

No, I'm not aware of this issue - simply because grass compiled without any
errors in diglib. The vector commands I use right now, mostly v.digit, work
fine.

I don't know about the missing symbols problem, but are you aware of
the OSX 64bit issue in diglib? There is a bug report (got stuck on
the old gforge tracker, and is misnamed):

When you built it a couple weeks ago, did you see any problems running
vector commands? I built from SVN sources a week ago and still had
the problem.

Hello!

I compiled GRASS 6.3.cvs for the x86_64 architecture about two weeks
ago. After a svn update today (30478) I get the error "ld: symbol(s)
not found for architecture x86_64". Have there been any changes
which could cause this?

Cheers,

Henning

Below the complete output after "make" in the diglib directory:

The error is a runtime.

2. For the time being I use mostly v.digit, and I did not have any problems with it in my or your build.

Why can it be an OSX-x86_64 problem only and not on other systems with the same architecture?

The one definite example was importing a shapefile, but the place it crashed was in the cleaning. Did you try v.in.ogr? Or maybe a v.clean (break tool)? Do you still have the 64bit build to try that?

My builds are 32bit, because of this problem, so you won't see it then.

IT is indeed a mystery why OSX 64bit has this problem. Though I didn't try it on PPC 64bit (no access PPC Macs with Leopard).
