I sent you an email including the book. Maybe it helps.

Solved, libz and libpthread were missing. This is because these two needs libsqlite3 itself.

At a guess libm is missing in the chroot. Check library dependencies with ldd.

Hi guys,

I can load libsqlite3 in normal environment but NOT while in chroot. It is interesting that other libraries like libc can be loaded as you can see in the following example:

gringo: ~ $: newlisp
newLISP v.10.7.6 64-bit on BSD IPv4/6 UTF-8 libffi, options: newlisp -h

> (import "/var/www/usr/lib/libsqlite3.so.8.6")
true

Now chroot, the same library file with different path of course:

gringo: ~ $: doas chroot -u www -g www /var/www /usr/bin/newlisp
newLISP v.10.7.6 64-bit on BSD IPv4/6 UTF-8 libffi, options: newlisp -h

> (import "/usr/lib/libsqlite3.so.8.6")

ERR: problem loading library in function import : "Cannot load specified object"

> (import "/usr/lib/libc.so.100.3" "printf")
printf@D5CDE4B7A40
>
gringo: ~ $:

ANY idea?

At 2006 was alive site http://www.fuzzylisp.com where I may find file fuzzylisp.lsp. It was written on newlisp. And now it not working. I was search this file on internet, but find nothing. Anybody may help me? And send fuzzylisp.zip to vashushpanov@gmail.com. Thanks!

Thank you rrq .. will try it

The steps I take are basically to
1. first create the makefile_build the normal way and then
2. copy that to a makefile_static file which I hand-edit:
3. remove -DFFI -DREADLINE (see below) from the CFLAGS setup
4. change the "default:" target action to be the two steps
  $(CC) $(OBJS) -m64 -o newlisp -static -Wl,-Bstatic -lm -lc
  strip newlisp
That's with gcc on a linux amd64 (devuan). I've got libc.a and libm.a from the libc6-dev package, and I don't include the FFI and READLINE options for it. Thoug I think you can find .a libraries for them too (libreadline-dev and libffi-dev packages)

EDIT: digging up that old project, I realized it needed musl-gcc as well; gcc doesn't seem to be capable of static binaries.

EDIT: maybe I confused myself; it seems gcc does it well too, and then you may also include ffi and readline (+termcap).

Hi guys, can anyone help me out? Is it possible to compile newlisp statically so I don't have to copy all dependency libraries from /usr/lib/... into the chroot? I need single big fat binary

I think Ted Walther mentioned in one of his posts that he managed to do it on OpenBSD (which is also my system). But he doesn't explain how

Ok roger that, rrq.

I did not realize the interactive mode would display differently.

And thanks for the println tip, makes it much prettier.

Thanks again for clarification and detailed explanation!

Much appreciated.
