[poky] perl do_compile issue

[Behzat Erte]

Hello all,

I'm trying to compile core-image-minimal for qemuarm machine. However when
poky make do_compile step for perl package I'm getting linker error as
below:

ERROR: Function failed: do_configure (log file is located at

-ldl -lm -lcrypt -lutil -lpthread -lc -lgdbm_compat
|      ./try
|
| and I got the following output:
|

| collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status


I know my distro (Gentoo x86_64) not officially supports but when I try
that step with manually I'm getting result is expected like as below:

time gcc -o try -O2 -D_REENTRANT -D_GNU_SOURCE -fno-strict-aliasing -pipe
-fstack-protector -Wl,-rpath-link -Wl,-O1 -fstack-protector
-L/usr/local/lib try.c -lnsl -lnm -lgdbm -ldb -ldl -lm -lcrypt -lutil
-lpthread -lc -lgdbm_compat

real    0m0.146s
user    0m0.127s
sys    0m0.026s

time ./try
Ok

real    0m0.007s
user    0m0.002s
sys    0m0.005s


I guess -rpath-link causing some problem with linker but somehow I did not
get exact root cause. If someone has any idea with this problem it would be
more than welcome.

cheers,
-berte.
