Alright im trying to do my first port (woot!) and iv run into an issue...

Code: [Select]

Undefined symbols:
  "___sprintf_chk", referenced from:
      _formatsize in util.o
  "___strcpy_chk", referenced from:
      _browse_draw in browser.o
      _calc_draw_progress in calc.o
      _cropstr in util.o
ld: symbol(s) not found


Well i found out that those lie in glibc or libc whichever you prefer so i figured i would just compile a newer version of glibc but it seems like thats a lengthy process... so i was first wondering where on the system libc is located... (couldnt find it with find / -name libc) and if you've ever had to do this to get something to work...

* ghoulmaster fails.. i forgot my regex in my search string.. found it in /private/var/nyll/usr/lib/libc.dylib

does it being a dylib have anything to do with it?

[C0deH4cker]

That shouldnt be a problem. Add -llibc to linker arguments if it isnt there, and also -L"/private/var/nyll/usr/lib" if it isnt there. Not guaranteeing that it will work, but its worth a shot.

[ghoulmaster]

by that do you mean gcc args or like part of LIBS in the makefile?

[C0deH4cker]

Same thing. If your using a makefile, add that to LDFLAGS.

BUMP

Did you find a solution to this problem ? I have the same error message.

Ronin! Glad to see you. Congrats on finding us here. I don't know how but ghoul master did manage to get it working. You might be best off pm ing him for the details.

Hello Trcx,

Yes I went back on iHackMyI which I did not checked lately due
to lack of free time and just discovered this great new forum.

I just PMed ghoulmaster about the problem.

[Trcx528]

Yup! I remember most people from there.  Really am glad that you found us!

Ya, PMing ghoul is probably the wait to go, he's not on much but checks in every couple days.    I really wish I could help beyond that but I can't port anything.  All I know is that ghoulmaster got his port done (ncdu, on the repo) so he managed to figure out some way around this.

yea school sucks but i get email notifications on new PM's so a pm is definitely the best way to reach me if iv gone missing

p.s. As stated in the pm incase anyone else out there wants to know i ended up running installsdk3 (it was included in one of BigBoss's pkg's) and then sym-linking it according to boococky's instructions worked
