Version 1.0.19 restructured the breakout +libraries, libcrypt.so.0, libdl.so.0, and friends. The functions in +those libraries are now included in libuClibc-0.1.0.19.so. Version +1.0.21 and above removed libc support for obstack, expecting packages to +use their bundled GNU lib code. Both changes require special upgrade +procedures which we outline below: + +0. Because of changes in the library structure in previous versions, +make sure you are working with 1.0.19 and rebuild world using + + emerge -e @world + +This will make sure all the executables link directly against libc.so.0 +(as reported by `readelf -d`) rather than via symlinks like libdl.so.0 +-> libc.so.0. Then upgrade from 1.0.19 to 1.0.20 without symlink-compat: + + USE="-symlink-compat" emerge =sys-libs/uclibc-ng-1.0.20 + +1. Get rid of the obstack.h header since it's used by configure scripts +to look for function prototypes and macros. + + mv /usr/include/obstack.h ~ + +2. We also need to force the use of any bundled gnu lib code. We can do +this by removing the definition of _GNU_OBSTACK_INTERFACE_VERSION from +gnu-version.h + + cp /usr/include/gnu-versions.h ~ + sed -i -e '/#define _GNU_OBSTACK/d' /usr/include/gnu-versions.h + +3. We need to tell stdio.h that __UCLIBC_HAS_OBSTACK__ is false. We do +this via the uClibc_config.h file. + + cp /usr/include/bits/uClibc_config.h ~ + sed -i -e '/__UCLIBC_HAS_OBSTACK__/ s/1/0/' \ + /usr/include/bits/uClibc_config.h + +4. To be safe, you may want to back up your entire /lib directory so +you can fall back should something go wrong: + + cp -a /lib /lib.bak + +5. Now when we rebuild @world, all packages will use their bundled +obstack code rather than depending on libc to provide it. + + ac_cv_func_obstack_vprintf=no emerge --keep-going --exclude \ + sys-libs/uclibc-ng -e @world + +6. Finally update uclibc-ng to the latest + + emerge =sys-libs/uclibc-ng-1.0.22 + +7. For good measure, rebuild the entire system + + emerge —e @world + -- cgit v1.2.3
