Description Forgotten User 0Pa7LREnXl 2016-06-22 03:02:19 UTC

While compiling wxWidgets applications, I always get an error message while linking:

/usr/lib64/libnvidia-glcore.so.367.27: undefined reference to `nv_vasprintf_vsnprintf'

...which clearly leads to the (automatically installed but from a semi-external repository) NVidia driver:

nvidia-computeG04-367.27-24.1.x86_64
nvidia-gfxG04-kmp-default-367.27_k4.1.12_1-24.1.x86_64
x11-video-nvidiaG04-367.27-24.1.x86_64
nvidia-glG04-367.27-24.1.x86_64

I would suspect imcomplete packing or faulty dependency structure.

Hi, I have just posted Bug 986427, which has been marked as a duplicate, maybe it is interesting to put the testcase here. Just link anything with -GLU to reproduce the problem. You don't need wxWidgets. Linking against opengl is broken in nvidia 367.27 G04 drivers.

I consider this to be a critical problem, since I am no longer able to generate an executable. Any ideas for a workaround, while we don't have a new driver?

Regards,
Marcelo.

testcase.c:
int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
	return 0;
}

The result is:

$ gcc -lGLU testcase.c
/usr/lib64/libnvidia-glcore.so.367.27: undefined reference to `nv_vasprintf_alloc'
/usr/lib64/libnvidia-glcore.so.367.27: undefined reference to `nv_vasprintf_vsnprintf'
/usr/lib64/libnvidia-glcore.so.367.27: undefined reference to `nv_vasprintf_free'
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status

Hi,

Just found a workaround.

Add -lGL to the line and it works fine:

$ gcc -lGL -lGLU testcase.c

Hmm. I cannot reproduce that issue with 367.35. Could you retry with 367.35, please?

Comment 5 Marcelo Jimenez 2016-08-12 14:36:00 UTC

Hi Stefan,

I am also unable to reproduce the problem with 367.35.

$ rpm -qa | grep -i nvidia
x11-video-nvidiaG04-367.35-25.1.x86_64
nvidia-computeG04-367.35-25.1.x86_64
nvidia-gfxG04-kmp-default-367.35_k4.1.12_1-25.1.x86_64
nvidia-glG04-367.35-25.1.x86_64

$ gcc -lGLU testcase.c

$

I consider the problem solved.

Regards,
Marcelo.

Ok. Then let's close it. :-)
