Description CdeMills 2011-09-16 08:31:58 UTC 
Hello,
unopkg fails to run on my machine. By using the error message and playing with ldd, I found the problem to be in basis-link/program/libhelplinkerli.so

Doing objdump -T libhelplinkerli.so | grep -i XML

reveals
00000000      DF *UND*	000000b3  LIBXML2_2.4.30 xmlXPathFreeObject
00000000      DF *UND*	0000002c  LIBXML2_2.6.0 xmlSetStructuredErrorFunc
00000000      DF *UND*	00000017  LIBXML2_2.4.30 xmlNodeIsText
00000000      DF *UND*	00000195  LIBXML2_2.4.30 xmlXPathEvalExpression
00000000      DF *UND*	00000037  LIBXML2_GLOBAL_VARIABLES __xmlLoadExtDtdDefaultValue

But the latest function, taken from libxml2.so.2, is tagged as 'Base', so the binding fails. I use a libxml2.so.2.7.8, compiled from source and with version information enabled. This problem does not occur with unopkg from version 3.3. Which version of libxml2 did you use to build libhelplinkerli.so ? How does it come the __xmlLoadExtDtdDefaultValue is tagged as 'LIBXML2_GLOBAL_VARIABLES' on your built system ?

Regards

CdM
