linux下链接动态库路径相关的/etc/ld.so.conf,ldconfig, PKG_CONFIG_PATH【整理】

http://dev.firnow.com/course/6_system/linux/Linuxjs/200874/130190.html

首先说下/etc/ld.so.conf:

这个文件记录了编译时使用的动态链接库的路径。
默认情况下,编译器只会使用/lib和/usr/lib这两个目录下的库文件
如果你安装了某些库,比如在安装gtk+-2.4.13时它会需要glib-2.0 >= 2.4.0,辛苦的安装好glib后
没有指定 --prefix=/usr 这样glib库就装到了/usr/local下,而又没有在/etc/ld.so.conf中添加/usr/local/lib
这个搜索路径,所以编译gtk+-2.4.13就会出错了 
对于这种情况有两种方法解决:
一:在编译glib-2.4.x时,指定安装到/usr下,这样库文件就会放在/usr/lib中,gtk就不会找不到需要的库文件了 
对于安装库文件来说,这是个好办法,这样也不用设置PKG_CONFIG_PATH了 (稍后说明)

二:将/usr/local/lib加入到/etc/ld.so.conf中,这样安装gtk时就会去搜索/usr/local/lib,同样可以找到需要的库 
将/usr/local/lib加入到/etc/ld.so.conf也是必须的,这样以后安装东东到local下,就不会出现这样的问题了。
将自己可能存放库文件的路径都加入到/etc/ld.so.conf中是明智的选择 ^_^
添加方法也极其简单,将库文件的绝对路径直接写进去就OK了,一行一个。例如:
/usr/X11R6/lib
/usr/local/lib
/opt/lib

再来看看ldconfig是个什么东东吧 :

它是一个程序,通常它位于/sbin下,是root用户使用的东东。具体作用及用法可以man ldconfig查到
简单的说,它的作用就是将/etc/ld.so.conf列出的路径下的库文件 缓存到/etc/ld.so.cache 以供使用
因此当安装完一些库文件,(例如刚安装好glib),或者修改ld.so.conf增加新的库路径后,需要运行一下/sbin/ldconfig
使所有的库文件都被缓存到ld.so.cache中,如果没做,即使库文件明明就在/usr/lib下的,也是不会被使用的,结果
编译过程中抱错,缺少xxx库,去查看发现明明就在那放着,搞的想大骂computer蠢猪一个。 ^_^
我曾经编译KDE时就犯过这个错误,(它需要每编译好一个东东,都要运行一遍),所以

切记改动库文件后一定要运行一下ldconfig,在任何目录下运行都可以。


再来说说 PKG_CONFIG_PATH这个变量吧:

经常在论坛上看到有人问"为什么我已经安装了glib-2.4.x,但是编译gtk+-2.4.x 还是提示glib版本太低阿?
为什么我安装了glib-2.4.x,还是提示找不到阿?。。。。。。"都是这个变量搞的鬼。
先来看一个编译过程中出现的错误 (编译gtk+-2.4.13):

checking for pkg-config... /usr/bin/pkg-config
checking for glib-2.0 >= 2.4.0 atk >= 1.0.1 pango >= 1.4.0... Package glib-2.0 was not found in the pkg-config search path.
Perhaps you should add the directory containing `glib-2.0.pc'
to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable
No package 'glib-2.0' found

configure: error: Library requirements (glib-2.0 >= 2.4.0 atk >= 1.0.1 pango >= 1.4.0) not met; consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if your libraries are in a nonstandard prefix so pkg-config can find them.
[root@NEWLFS gtk+-2.4.13]#
很明显,上面这段说明,没有找到glib-2.4.x,并且提示应该将glib-2.0.pc加入到PKG_CONFIG_PATH下。
究竟这个pkg-config PKG_CONFIG_PATH glib-2.0.pc 是做什么的呢? let me tell you ^_^
先说说它是哪冒出来的,当安装了pkgconfig-x.x.x这个包后,就多出了pkg-config,它就是需要PKG_CONFIG_PATH的东东
pkgconfig-x.x.x又是做什么的? 来看一段说明:

The pkgconfig package contains tools for passing the include path and/or library paths to build tools during the make file execution.

pkg-config is a function that returns meta information for the specified library.

The default setting for PKG_CONFIG_PATH is /usr/lib/pkgconfig because of the prefix we use to install pkgconfig. You may add to PKG_CONFIG_PATH by exporting additional paths on your system where pkgconfig files are installed. Note that PKG_CONFIG_PATH is only needed when compiling packages, not during run-time.

我想看过这段说明后,你已经大概了解了它是做什么的吧。
其实pkg-config就是向configure程序提供系统信息的程序,比如软件的版本啦,库的版本啦,库的路径啦,等等
这些信息只是在编译其间使用。你可以 ls /usr/lib/pkgconfig 下,会看到许多的*.pc,用文本编辑器打开
会发现类似下面的信息:

prefix=/usr
exec_prefix=$
libdir=$/lib
includedir=$/include

glib_genmarshal=glib-genmarshal
gobject_query=gobject-query
glib_mkenums=glib-mkenums

Name: GLib
Description: C Utility Library
Version: 2.4.7
Libs: -L$ -lglib-2.0
Cflags: -I$/glib-2.0 -I$/glib-2.0/include

明白了吧,configure就是靠这些信息判断你的软件版本是否符合要求。并且得到这些东东所在的位置,要不去哪里找呀。
不用我说你也知道为什么会出现上面那些问题了吧。

解决的办法很简单,设定正确的PKG_CONFIG_PATH,假如将glib-2.x.x装到了/usr/local/下,那么glib-2.0.pc就会在
/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig下,将这个路径添加到PKG_CONFIG_PATH下就可以啦。并且确保configure找到的是正确的
glib-2.0.pc,就是将其他的lib/pkgconfig目录glib-2.0.pc干掉就是啦。(如果有的话 ^-^)
设定好后可以加入到~/.bashrc中,例如:
PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/opt/kde-3.3.0/lib/pkgconfig:/usr/lib/pkgconfig:/usr/local/pkgconfig:
/usr/X11R6/lib/pkgconfig
[root@NEWLFS ~]#echo $PKG_CONFIG_PATH
/opt/kde-3.3.0/lib/pkgconfig:/usr/lib/pkgconfig:/usr/local/pkgconfig:/usr/X11R6/lib/pkgconfig

从上面可以看出,安装库文件时,指定安装到/usr,是很有好处的,无论是/etc/ld.so.conf还是PKG_CONFIG_PATH
默认都会去搜索/usr/lib的,可以省下许多麻烦,不过从源码包管理上来说,都装在/usr下
管理是个问题,不如装在/usr/local下方便管理
其实只要设置好ld.so.conf,PKG_CONFIG_PATH路径后,就OK啦 ^_^ 
  
附:ldconfig man(8) 
   
Name
/sbin/ldconfig - configure dynamic linker run time bindings

Synopsis
/sbin/ldconfig [ -nNvXV ] [ -f conf ] [ -C cache ] [ -r root ] directory ...
/sbin/ldconfig -l [ -v ] library ...
/sbin/ldconfig -p

Description


ldconfig creates the necessary links and cache to the most recent shared libraries found in the directories specified on the command line, in the file /etc/ld.so.conf, and in the trusted directories (/lib and /usr/lib). The cache is used by the run-time linker, ld.so or ld-linux.so. ldconfig checks the header and filenames of the libraries it encounters when determining which versions should have their links updated.

ldconfig will attempt to deduce the type of ELF libs (ie. libc5 or libc6/glibc) based on what C libs, if any, the library was linked against. Therefore, when making dynamic libraries, it is wise to explicitly link against libc (use -lc).

Some existing libs do not contain enough information to allow the deduction of their type. Therefore, the /etc/ld.so.conf file format allows the specification of an expected type. This is only used for those ELF libs which we can not work out. The format is "dirname=TYPE", where TYPE can be libc4, libc5, or libc6. (This syntax also works on the command line.) Spaces are not allowed. Also see the -p option. ldconfig should normally be run by the superuser as it may require write permission on some root owned directories and files.

Options
-v 
Verbose mode. Print current version number, the name of each directory as it is scanned, and any links that are created. Overrides quiet mode.

-n

Only process directories specified on the command line. Don't process the trusted directories (/lib and /usr/lib) nor those specified in /etc/ld.so.conf. Implies -N.

-N

Don't rebuild the cache. Unless -X is also specified, links are still updated.

-X

Don't update links. Unless -N is also specified, the cache is still rebuilt.

-f conf 
Use conf instead of /etc/ld.so.conf. 
-C cache 
Use cache instead of /etc/ld.so.cache. 
-r root 
Change to and use root as the root directory. 
-l 
Library mode. Manually link individual libraries. Intended for use by experts only.

-p

Print the lists of directories and candidate libraries stored in the current cache.

Files
/lib/ld.so 
run-time linker/loader

/etc/ld.so.conf

File containing a list of colon, space, tab, newline, or comma-separated directories in which to search for libraries.

/etc/ld.so.cache

File containing an ordered list of libraries found in the directories specified in /etc/ld.so.conf.
