Ubuntu 12.04 x64 error: undefined reference to stat64

[rezsbc]

Folks,

I'm having a bit of difficulty compiling this on my Ubuntu 12.04 64 bit machine. I have been able to compile fine previously on the same machine, even under 12.04 to my knowledge.

Currently when I try to compile the 'oss' package I get an error that there is an "undefined reference to `stat64'" in function "SYS_nstat". I must admit I'm no expert on compilation and I haven't been able to confirm the source of this error. I am 99% sure I have all dependencies installed so not sure what might be causing it.

The full output is below:

If anyone has any ideas/advice I would be most thankful!

Re-Run this:

Code: Select all

sudo apt-get install build-essential libc6-dev libssl-dev libexpat1-dev libgl1-mesa-dev libqt4-dev

The requirements changed with 1.7.5. Make sure you have them all.

Thanks yes I have all the dependencies installed:

Humm.

I'm rubbish with compiling errors.

If I were you I'd purge all the dependencies, reboot and re-install them. Other than that I'm out of ideas.

Hm stat64 is a system-level function:

http://linux.die.net/man/2/stat64

It definitely shouldn't be missing. 1.7.5 is compiling fine for my on Ubuntu 12.04 64bit.

Thanks tanders I'll dig deeper.

It's complaining about this function in '/makemkv-oss-1.7.6/libabi/src':

Code: Select all

int SYS_fstat(int filedes, SYS_stat *buf)
{
    struct stat64 st;
    int err;

    err = fstat64(filedes,&st);

    if (!err)
    {
        statcvt(buf,&st);
    }

    return err;
}

I'm no expert but I tend to agree with you this is a core function (should be in libc) and the above code does not look terribly complex. I'll try to dig more and see if I can work anything out.

BTW I get this on 1.7.6 too and also 1.7.4.

OK crowfax you might not be the worlds biggest expert but you sorted me out!!

I removed (aptitude reinstall) the dependencies and it worked!

Must be something to do with my libc library.... thanks all for the help appreciate all the replies
