Description Michael Toftdal 2009-07-14 05:23:58 UTC 
I (eg.) run 
./configure --without-x --without-libiconv --with-drivers=FILES
--disable-fontconfig --disable-cups --disable-gtk --disable-cairo

and get the following when trying to compile with "make so":

[...]
./obj/../soobj/echogs -e .dev -a-  ./obj/../soobj/jpeggray -include
./obj/../soobj/sdcte
make[1]: *** No rule to make target `contrib/japanese/gdevmag.c', needed by
`obj/../soobj/gdevmag.o'.  Stop.
make[1]: Leaving directory
`/.automount/devel-ed1/root/zones/jne-zone/root/export/home/mito/Extern/gs8.64_Linux'
make: *** [so] Error 2
Comment 1 Ray Johnston 2009-07-16 10:04:06 UTC 
As a licensed OEM customer, you should be using the Artifex release,
NOT the GPL releases (unless you are building a GPL product, and then there
is no support).
Comment 2 Michael Toftdal 2009-07-16 13:07:03 UTC 
It IS the Artifex source I am building.
Comment 3 Alex Cherepanov 2009-07-18 21:20:10 UTC 
Rev. 9871 fixes libiconv link errors. The option --without-libiconv is no
longer needed on Solaris. See bug 690123 for details.
Comment 4 Hin-Tak Leung 2010-05-05 03:33:17 UTC 
I tried the reported ./configure options and 'make so' run to completion on x86_64 linux (other than needing -fPIC to linking, which is a known X86_64 linux issue). Aassign to Chris for trying out on Solaris to confirm before closing.

patch

Open Solaris need this patch to build "so" target with gcc.
Besides this, the configure options work for me with current
development version.
Comment 6 Alex Cherepanov 2010-12-30 19:17:28 UTC 
The patch has been committed as a rev. 11984.
Configuration and build process has been tested for all combinations of
gcc 3.4.3 vs. Sun Studio 12.2, bash vs. sh, default, debug, and so targets.

$ uname -a
SunOS opensolaris 5.11 snv_111b i86pc i386 i86pc Solaris

Most likely, all build problems in Solaris are fixed.
If not, feel free to re-open this bug report or file a new one.
