Software prerequisites

Starting with version 3.1.7 Ganglia needs at least the following additional packages:

  • apr
    • AIX
      • AIX packages can be found here
    • SLES 9
      • Use the libapr1 package provided by me
    • SLES 10 and SLES 11
      • Use the libapr1 package that comes with SLES 10 and SLES 11
    • SLES 12
      • Use the libapr1 package provided by me
      • The SUSE libapr1 version has been compiled with the -fvisibility=hidden compiler flag which prevents some symbols from being exported. Unfortunately, Ganglia now requires one of those symbols, namely apr_sockaddr_vars_set.
      • Therefore, gmond will not start and fail with the following error message
        /usr/sbin/gmond: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib64/libganglia.so.0: undefined symbol: apr_sockaddr_vars_set
      • I consider this to be a clear bug in SLES but until now SUSE has not yet fixed this issue (neither with SLES 12, SLES 12 SP1, SLES 12 SP2 and SLES 12 SP3), so the only solution for me was to recompile the libapr1 package without the -fvisibility=hidden compiler flag but thus forcing everybody to use my libapr1 package instead of the official SUSE one.
