Hi Axel,
can you check if the binary outputs are really 64 
bit? I am not sure that configure generates by 
default the proper command line options to force a 64 bit build.

Thanks,
Alberto

Hi Axel,
rpmbuild is an utility that reads the 
xerces-c.spec file and executes the instructions found there.
The spec file specifies this line

make prefix=$RPM_BUILD_ROOT%{prefix} 
libdir=$RPM_BUILD_ROOT%{prefix}/%{_lib} install

that overwrites the libdir variable found in the Makefile.
So, provided that %{_lib} is expanded into "lib64", it should work.

Don't know how to make rpmbuild (grep for 'rpm' gave no hits in Makefile).

However, in trunk/Makefile, line 247: libdir = ${exec_prefix}/lib
trunk/Makefile.in, line 247: libdir = @libdir@

shows that @libdir@ is set wrong.

Cheers,
			Axel

I sympathize...I do have access to one box I test on for the moment. It's on
my TODO list to check this, I've been trying to find time to test
XML-Security for Berin on the same kinds of platforms, but I wanted to test
Xerces as well as soon as I can.

Is there a tarball of 3.0 anywhere, or just svn trunk?

I have to package Xerces and xmlsec for all the OpenSAML/Shibboleth
supported platforms, so I've been messing with those builds and specfiles
for a while now. Some folks at Stanford are working on packages for Debian
now as well. My hope is for 3.0 to resolve most of that custom packaging.

Do you have a timeline at this point for when 3.0 should be final? Is it
basically "when people stop reporting issues" or sometime later?

Hi Scott,
do you have the time to test the 3.0 branch? It would be very 
helpful, as I don't have a 64-bit hardware nor the experience with 
the 64-bit architecture.

Thanks in advance,
Alberto

When I ran into this with Xerces 2.x, one issue had to do with specifying
the --libdir switch using the -C switch to runConfigure. It was building
things into lib but then the rest of the specfile was using lib64.

Since runConfigure is gone (I think?), might not be the same problem.

Good :-)
Can you check if rpmbuild instead needs some 
specific switch? According to the bug reporter, 
using {%_lib} in the spec file should be enough 
to be compatible with both 32 and 64 bit environments.

Thanks,
Alberto

Hi Alberto,

axel@luckyluke:/usr/local/lib> file libxerces-3.0.so
libxerces-3.0.so: ELF 64-bit LSB shared object, AMD x86-64, version 1 (SYSV), 
not stripped
