Hi,

I use a software (MOOG), which requires libX11.a.
This software was working properly on kubuntu (both 64 and on 2 different 32 bit distro). After an update, it doesn't work anymore and it is not possible to compile it again.
The errors are pointing to X11:
-----
In function `x11_setup':
undefined reference to `XSetErrorHandler'
undefined reference to `XSetIOErrorHandler'
...
and a zillion of othere undefined references
-------

libX11.a is installed on my pcs, from libx11-dev (2:1,4,4.2ubuntu1).

Any idea on what went wrong and/or how to solve it?

thanks

Rosanna

You must have missed this post --> http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/inde...t-1856457.html when you tried to search for a solution.

yes, I definitely missed this, I was blaming x11 actually...
Thank you sooooo much, I will try this immediately

Cheers

ask for help again...

I am using gfortran. The command line for compiling the program is like:

gfortran -Wall sub1.o sub2.o ..subn.o -o MOOG -L/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/ -lX11

all sub1.f & co are compiled in advance with gfortran -Wall, no libraries needed.

any suggestion is again very welcomed

Did that link have the solution to your problem? If so, please mark this thread as SOLVED. This sounds like a different question (actually, there is no question, just statements) so it should be a new thread. If this is a new question, start a new thread in the proper forum. If it is somehow related to your original question, please explain how it is germane to the original question.

Apologies for the last message, it was actually obscure.

no, it is the same question, since the link did not solve my problem.

In the link, the way to solve the problem was to put compiler-options-program.c-libraries in this order.
As I stated in the last message, it seems that in my makefile the things are called in the right order.
I reported the exact command in case I am missing something obvious.

the problem is solved.
It was something in the makefile, I changed here and there, but I have no idea what and I do not want to mess up again, because of deadlines.
Sorry about that. The bottom line is that it was not related to missing libraries or compiler options, possibly I messed up with the syntax of the makefile.

Could you please post your Makefile? I'm having the same problem and I can't figure it out.
