This is also an issue for MacOSX where libtommath is not installed by default.
I see. I agree that allowing to use embedded libtommath source is useful (it just shouldn't be default, IMHO). It was just the phrase "have problems with tommath install" which sounded as if there was some problem with building libtommath on SLE, installing it there or using it to build or run Firebird. If it was only about the absence in official repositories, that's something I cannot help with, or at least not in SLE <= 12.
There are definitely a lot of ways to install that library (build from source s is also trivial) but tommath is not supported by official repository.
Can you be more specific about the problems on SLES? The packages from
http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/mkubecek:/firebird30/SLE_11_SP4/ http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/mkubecek:/firebird30/SLE_12/ http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/mkubecek:/firebird30/SLE_12_SP1/ (built in OBS project home:mkubecek:firebird30) seem to work for me. I recently disabled builds for SLE11 SP3 when it went to LTSS but I haven't seen any problems there either. |
I used ./autogen.sh --with-builtin-tommath --with-editline=no
but building gives:
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -ltommath
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
Of course, I can install tommath but the goal is to build without installing the package and take benefit of --with-builtin-tommath
