  Executive summary​: I had to run "sh Configure" and add "-lresolv" to   the libraries line\, otherwise "make test" would fail several tests with   complaints about socket.so. I would hope that the installation process   could be improved to automatically pick up on this.

  Details follow​:

  I have a Sun Ultra/1 with solaris 7 installed\, with all current   patches as of a month ago. Our version of gcc is egcs-2.91.60.

  I'm trying to build perl 5.6.0 and was stunned to see it fail   during the make test. (I'm spoiled\, I expect everything to work   on Sun's)

  I ran "sh Configure -de;make;make test"   I get the following errors​:

  lib/socket...........ld.so.1​: ./perl​: fatal​: relocation error​: file   ../lib/auto/Socket/Socket.so​: symbol inet_aton​: referenced symbol   not found

  (there are several errors\, this is just one). I then cd'd into   the 't/' directory and ran "./perl harness" which gives the same   errors and the following summary​:

  Failed Test Status Wstat Total Fail Failed List of failed   ---------------------------------------------------------------   lib/io_multihom 145 37120 8 6 75.00% 3-8   lib/io_sock.t 145 37120 14 13 92.86% 2-14   lib/io_udp.t 0 9 7 7 100.00% 1-7   lib/ph.t 84 2 2.38% 21\, 49   lib/socket.t 0 9 ?? ?? % ??

  After going through /usr/lib and running nm on everything in   there and grepping for inet_aton\, I found it in libresolv.

  So then I tried a "make distclean" followed by an interactive   run of "sh Configure"\, adding "-lresolv" to the libraries   section​:

  ...   What libraries to use?   [-lsocket -lbind -lnsl -ldb -ldl -lm -lc -lcrypt -lsec] $* -lresolv   ...

  Now "make test" would run to completion w/out any errors.

  During the course of my testing\, I upgraded our gcc to 2.95.2 and   that made no difference. I also tried running Configure several different   ways\, playing with my path\, in case that was messing things up.   One possibility that I didn't get to before this fix\, was that I do   have "LD_LIBRARY_PATH" set to "/usr/openwin/lib"\, but that shouldn't   cause any problems.

  I hope that this bug report has been filed in the correct manner\, and   you find it to be of some help.

  Warm regards   ...art mulder

I ran "sh Configure -de;make;make test" I get the following errors​:

After going through /usr/lib and running nm on everything in there and grepping for inet_aton\, I found it in libresolv.

So then I tried a "make distclean" followed by an interactive run of "sh Configure"\, adding "-lresolv" to the libraries section​:

 \.\.\.
 What libraries to use?
 \[\-lsocket \-lbind \-lnsl \-ldb \-ldl \-lm \-lc \-lcrypt \-lsec\] $\* \-lresolv
 \.\.\.

Now "make test" would run to completion w/out any errors.

During the course of my testing\, I upgraded our gcc to 2.95.2 and that made no difference. I also tried running Configure several different ways\, playing with my path\, in case that was messing things up. One possibility that I didn't get to before this fix\, was that I do have "LD_LIBRARY_PATH" set to "/usr/openwin/lib"\, but that shouldn't cause any problems.

There's some strangeness going on here\, because other people have reported successful builds on Solaris 2.7 without having to add -lresolv. If you could compare config info to determine how your setup is different\, that would help tremendously. Past ok reports are archived here​:

I hope that this bug report has been filed in the correct manner\, and you find it to be of some help.

Yes indeed\, thanks.

Chromatic say​:

Bug #2930 looks like it can be closed; tests on Solaris 2.7 are passing in this recent smoke report​:
