Bug ID: 20918
Summary: Building with --enable-nss-crypt fails
tst-linkall-static.
Product: glibc
Version: 2.25
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: P2
Component: build
Assignee: unassigned at sourceware dot org
Reporter: carlos at redhat dot com
CC: carlos at redhat dot com
Target Milestone: ---
When building with --enable-nss-crypt the tst-linkall-static test fails.
The tst-linkall-static test links all static archives together to verify that
statically linking them all will work.
When building with NSS crypto routines the libcrypt.a generated by glibc has a
dependency on the static NSS crypto library.
Therefore if your distribution does not provided the static NSS crypto routines
then you cannot link libcrypt.a against anything without providing your own
versions of the required crypto routines.
At a minimum we must disable linking libcrypt.a into tst-linkall-static if we
find at configure time that there is no static NSS crypt library.
