 |
|
No matter how I run it, I always get this result:
| Code: | prelink: dso.c:306: fdopen_dso: Assertion `j == k' failed.
Aborted |
I'm using binutils 2.13.90.0.16-r1, and libelf 0.8.2.
Here's an example of a minimal test (with this outcome)
First a summary:
ldd /usr/lib/phoenix/phoenix-bin
| Code: | libdl.so.2 => /lib/libdl.so.2 (0x4f769000)
libmozjs.so => /usr/lib/mozilla/libmozjs.so (0x40016000)
libxpcom.so => /usr/lib/mozilla/libxpcom.so (0x4008e000)
libplds4.so => /usr/lib/mozilla/libplds4.so (0x40197000)
libplc4.so => /usr/lib/mozilla/libplc4.so (0x4019a000)
libnspr4.so => /usr/lib/mozilla/libnspr4.so (0x4019f000)
libpthread.so.0 => /lib/libpthread.so.0 (0x4f875000)
libgtk-1.2.so.0 => /usr/lib/libgtk-1.2.so.0 (0x4fa40000)
libgdk-1.2.so.0 => /usr/lib/libgdk-1.2.so.0 (0x4fb7d000)
libgmodule-1.2.so.0 => /usr/lib/libgmodule-1.2.so.0 (0x4f91d000)
libglib-1.2.so.0 => /usr/lib/libglib-1.2.so.0 (0x4f8f5000)
libXi.so.6 => /usr/X11R6/lib/libXi.so.6 (0x4f8eb000)
libXext.so.6 => /usr/X11R6/lib/libXext.so.6 (0x4f852000)
libX11.so.6 => /usr/X11R6/lib/libX11.so.6 (0x4f76e000)
libm.so.6 => /lib/libm.so.6 (0x4f744000)
libstdc++.so.5 => /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i686-pc-linux-gnu/3.2.1/libstdc++.so.5 (0x401cf000)
libgcc_s.so.1 => /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i686-pc-linux-gnu/3.2.1/libgcc_s.so.1 (0x4029b000)
libc.so.6 => /lib/libc.so.6 (0x4f612000)
/lib/ld-linux.so.2 => /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x4f5fc000)
|
Then the actual run:
| Code: | | prelink /usr/lib/phoenix/phoenix-bin |
The output, of course, is shown above.
I looked at dso.c from prelink's distrobution, but whoever coded it didn't do a very good job of commenting or using descriptive variables, so I couldn't very easily determine what went wrong.
I've tried many test, and this is always the result. How do I fix it? Or, for that matter, what does that mean? |

I also get this on at least three machines, all running the latest stable version of every package in Portage.

I'm not an expert on prelinking either, but I have a few questions:
1. Did you recompile and reinstall glibc after emerge'ing prelink?
2. Have you prelinked all your libraries?
3. What is the contents of (if I remember correct) /etc/prelink.conf?
4. What is the CFLAGS set to? (Does it include -fpic?)

No, but neither `man prelink` nor the Gentoo prelink guide suggest that I should.
| ebrostig wrote: | | 2. Have you prelinked all your libraries? |
AFAIK, this is done by prelink during the run.
| ebrostig wrote: | | 3. What is the contents of (if I remember correct) /etc/prelink.conf? |
The default that the prelink ebuild ships with.

No, it does not, but if that was the problem prelink would complain about the library and move on rather than failing an assertion and terminating.

After prelinking(everything according to the prelinking guide), my system is screwed.
Boot and shutdown problems, /proc/cmdline problem.
I did a prelink -uaf but that did not fix it 
And today when i tried to update ut2003(had this problem before with prelink had to reinstall) i got this error:
| Code: |
Uncompressing Unreal Tournament 2003 for GNU/Linux 2126 patch.....................................................................
gzip: stdin: invalid compressed data--crc error
loki_patch: dynamic-link.h:57: elf_get_dynamic_info: Assertion `! "bad dynamic tag"' failed.
./update.sh: line 62: 30373 Aborted loki_patch --verify patch.dat
The program returned an error code (1)
Update failed
|
if i reboot now i think it won´t boot it did last time when this happened, so can someone plz tell me how to fix this(don´t want to reinstall again )?
*Edit* now my elfs seem to be on the lose:
root@localhost rick # prelink -uf ut2003
prelink: cannot open ELF file: no eror
root@localhost rick # |

| the ut2003 problem you are getting is a problem with the updater. ryan gordan (the guy who ported ut2003) said on the mailing list some time back that the updater is not compatable with glibc 2.3, how ever it has been fixed in newer versions of ut2k3, so instead of using the updater download the tarball of the lates patch and extract it to /usr/local/games/ut2003 and it will be fixed. |
