ncurses compilation problem

Hi,
I can not compile ncurses (5.5) on 11.23, PA-RISC:
../configure
....
(a lot of)
/usr/lib/dld.sl: Invalid version for shared library:
/usr/local/lib/libiconv.sl
/usr/lib/dld.sl: Exec format error
../config.status[1125]: 5451 Abort(coredump)
creating headers.sh

** Configuration summary for NCURSES 5.5 20051010:

extended funcs: yes
xterm terminfo: xterm-new
bin directory: /usr/local/bin
lib directory: /usr/local/lib
include directory: /usr/local/include/ncurses
man directory: /usr/local/man
terminfo directory: /usr/local/share/terminfo

** Include-directory is not in a standard location

hpuh:/docas/depots/src/ncurses-5.5 # file /usr/lib/dld.sl
/usr/lib/dld.sl: s800 shared library -not stripped
hpuh:/docas/depots/src/ncurses-5.5 # file /usr/local/lib/libiconv.sl
/usr/local/lib/libiconv.sl: PA-RISC2.0 shared library -not stripped

libiconv is built fom source, but I am getting the same error when
libiconv is swinstalled from binary depot

(HP-UX.insta.ll file says :
export LDOPTS="+s -L/usr/local/lib -L/usr/local/lib/hpux32"
OK, I did it, but /usr/local/lib/hpux32 is empty.)

Any idea?

Thanks, Michal

This indicates that libiconv.sl doesn't match the high water version
the application was linked with.

You need to use /usr/ccs/bin/odump on your libs and executable:
$ odump -sldlhead -slliblist -sllibloadlist /usr/lib/libcl.2
Shared Library DL Header for /usr/lib/libcl.2:
version: 93092112
highwater_mark: 0000000049 <<<<<<<<<<

Shared Library List Table for /usr/lib/libcl.2:
Index Ref IDNRVIL HighWater Name
0 abs I....I. 0 libcl.2 (Ignore the 0 here for self)
1 -l .D...I. 0 /usr/lib/libdld.2
2 -l .D...I. 0 /usr/lib/libisamstub.1
^^^^
Shared Library Load List for /usr/lib/libcl.2:
Order Name
0 /usr/lib/libcl.2
1 ^ /usr/lib/libdld.2
2 ^ /usr/lib/libisamstub.1

The two highwater marks must agree. For the above lib, libcl has a HW
of 49. Anyone using this lib must have <= 49, in the second table.

Typically only libcl and libc have the obsolete intra-library versioning.
