We were trying to compile the LibXML module for perl in 64 bit HPUX machine.
We ran the .configure like below:
./configure --prefix=/software/opt/HPUX11/ia64/libxml2-2.7.7 --target=ia64-hpux
The compiler is set to 64 bit: export CC="cc +DD64"
Then we ran gmake install
, the following error occured:
gmake[1]: Entering directory `/software/src/libxml2-2.7.7'
/bin/sh ./libtool --tag=CC --mode=link cc +DD64 -o xmllint xmllint.o ./libxml2.la -lpthread -lm
libtool: link: cc +DD64 -o .libs/xmllint xmllint.o ./.libs/libxml2.so -lpthread -lm -Wl,+b -Wl,/software/opt/HPUX11/ia64/libxml2-2.7.7/lib
ld: Unknown input file type: "./.libs/libxml2.so"
Fatal error.
gmake[1]: *** [xmllint] Error 1
gmake[1]: Leaving directory `/software/src/libxml2-2.7.7'
gmake: *** [install-recursive] Error 1
Could somebody tell us how to fix this?
