hussam Report post Posted November 15, 2018 (edited) I got the following error linking against static SDL "undefined reference to symbol 'dlclose@@GLIBC_2.2.5'" + something that indicated I was missing passing -ldl I changed the call to pkg-config sdl --libs in the makefile to sdl-config --static-libs to make it link correctly. The output of the two commands doesn't match with sdl-config passing -ldl to the linker. Is this some issue on my side? I have a static sdl build (turning it into a build dependency only) so I don't have to keep SDL installed to avoid other packages inadvertently linking against it instead of SDL2. This wasn't an issue in my last build from July. Edited November 15, 2018 by hussam Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bluap Report post Posted November 17, 2018 I changed the makefile recently to use pkg-config over the other way because it appears to be deprecated. Did you try adding the --static flag to the pkg-config command? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hussam Report post Posted November 17, 2018 (edited) Ok. pkg-config sdl --libs --static also works. Thank you. Edited November 17, 2018 by hussam Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
