I ran into the same problem and fixed it by manually running "./configure --enable-shared" in the libelf
dir, followed by a make. Then the shared lib was ready for installation so the MokoMakefile? continued
without problems.

Platform: Gentoo 32bit x86

[denis.kot@…]

thanks! I helps!
same dist and arch.

[freyther@…]

Well, manually toying in the workdir is obviously not a fix.

I have seen this bug at least three times on Moko irc. It has to do with TARGET_ARCH set to i486 and libelf
claiming i486 can't have shared libraries. You have either the option to fix libelf's autoconf abuse or to
bump TARGET_ARCH to i686. TARGET_ARCH gets set to i486 by the x86.conf inside the oe/conf/machine
directory of openmoko.

This has been fixed in OE .dev last week

Is this still an issue? Dennis, please close this bug if the package builds for you.
Thanks

[openmoko@…]

I run into this problem, so it does not seem to be resolved. :-( Or someone
forget to commit something? I can manualy ./configure for this package but I can
also wait a while and verify it after someone fix it.

My configuration:
MACHINE = "qemux86"
DISTRO = "openmoko"
BUILD_ARCH = "i686"
INHERIT+=" devshell"
SRCDATE_eds-dbus="now"

[openmoko@…]

sorry for reopening this bug... the problem was with frozen revision of
openembeded when using Mokomakefile. Rod Whitby just commited the patch (thanks
again).
