This may be caused by an old datatype.import.so, if you delete all *.so's and recompile and reinstall, what happens?

comment:2 in reply to:  description ; Changed 15 years ago by Ivan Raikov

The problem was caused by an older Chicken distribution installed in /usr; apparently the compiled .so files were linked incorrectly. Setting LD_LIBRARY_PATH and recompiling all the installed eggs fixes the problem, although perhaps chicken-install could be a little bit smarter about what options to pass to the linker. You can close this ticket if you don't think this is worth the effort.

Was this caused by a missing -L<path> option? I'd love to fix this, but am not completely clear about the exact cause of the incorrect link.

Well, it looks like I cannot reproduce this bug, so perhaps it did have to do with some old *.import.so files. The options passed to the linker seem to be correct.
