#852 closed defect (fixed)

mysql 4.0.20 doesn't configure against glibc 2.3.4

Description

One for the future, as it's not relevant for the current LFS release version (maybe you should put a "future" option in somewhere in the bug report screen!), however...

The configure script for mySQL greps for the string "Linuxthreads" in /usr/include/pthread.h

This string isn't present in the pthread.h shipping with glibc 2.3.4 (as used in LFS CVS).

Kludging the configure script to grep for something else (I used PTHREAD) makes it configure, build and run no problems.

This has been discussed on lfs-hackers numerous times. Please search the mailling lists before creating a bug report. Just add the following to your configure line --with-named-thread-libs=-lpthread.

No, please DO submit bugs like these. Bugzilla is how we track problems, not a mailing list.

BLFS instructions have been updated to build MySQL successfully against LFS-6.0, however the patch should be removed and --with-named-thread-libs=-lpthread should be passed instead.

4.0.21 still requires the patch.

After some googling I found out that you need to pass CPPFLAGS="-D_GNU_SOURCE" to configure script in addition to the --with-named-thread-libs=-lpthread switch in order to successfully compile MySQL.
