[bug #23876] gnustep-base does not build in a chrooted environment

[Richard Frith-Macdonald]

Follow-up Comment #1, bug #23876 (project gnustep):

There's not much to do on here ... you would need to at least look at the
configuration log and full build output to see what's going on (building the
'startup' package might help here as that automatically collects the relevant
logs).

However, the error message does give some clue:

Linking library libgnustep-base ... 
obj/NSProcessInfo.o: In function `main': 
/home/fwang/rpm/BUILD/gnustep-base-1.16.3/Source/NSProcessInfo.m:913:
undefined reference to `gnustep_base_user_main' 

Now, this is linking the library itsself, and the gnustep_base_user_main
function is *supposed* to be undefined at this point (since that function
should be provided in programs using the library.  This suggests that there is
a problem with the linker (or the arguments supplied to it).

However, on most systems I would not expect gnustep_base_user_main to be used
at all, so something may be broken at the configuration stage.
