Subject: [PATCH 213/217] meson.build: be specific for library path
|
|
|
2eb93d |
|
|
|
2eb93d |
If you run the typical configure script on a typical linux software
|
|
|
2eb93d |
project say with ./configure --prefix=/usr/ then the libdir defaults
|
|
|
2eb93d |
to /usr/lib/ however this is not true with meson.
|
|
|
2eb93d |
|
|
|
2eb93d |
With meson the current libdir path follows the one set by the prefix,
|
|
|
2eb93d |
and so with the current setup with prefix forced by default to /usr/
|
|
|
2eb93d |
we end up with libdir set to /usr/ as well and so libraries built
|
|
|
2eb93d |
and installed also placed into /usr/ as well, not /usr/lib/ as we
|
|
|
2eb93d |
would typically expect.
|
|
|
2eb93d |
|
|
|
2eb93d |
So you if you use today's defaults you end up with the libraries placed
|
|
|
2eb93d |
into /usr/ and then a simple error such as:
|
|
|
2eb93d |
|
|
|
2eb93d |
cxl: error while loading shared libraries: libcxl.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
|
|
|
2eb93d |
|
|
|
2eb93d |
Folks may have overlooked this as their old library is still usable.
|
|
|
2eb93d |
|
|
|
2eb93d |
Fix this by forcing the default library path to /usr/lib, and so
|
|
|
2eb93d |
requiring users to set both prefix and libdir if they want to
|
|
|
2eb93d |
customize both.
