DMD looking for random file on disk when linking - monodevelop

About 20 minutes ago, I tried to compile a project of mine, and it compiled and linked fine into an executable. I added three D source files, edited some code, and tried to recompile. It failed. That in and of itself is nothing peculiar. However, the build output was:
dub build "accord" "--build=plain"

I am using Mono-D. Any other project I try seems to compile perfectly. I have no idea why Dub is looking in my users directory for a source file. My JSON file is the standard fare generated by Dub with Derelict-Util (v2.0.0), Derelict-GL3 (v1.0.13), and Derelict-GLFW3 (v1.1.0) as dependencies. I have spent some time trawling the interwebs looking for a solution, but might have missed something. If I did, please just point me in the right direction. Thanks!

[EDIT]: I've identified the problem. The linker seems to think that I am building a library, and not an app. I don't know what I did to do that, but I don't know how to fix it. So, my question now is this: how to I change it back? Thanks.
[EDIT]: Nevermind. Changing the build type to executable did nothing.
[EDIT]: I tried using dub v0.9.22 (from v0.9.23) and it appears to link fine. I have no idea what's going on.

I suspect that the source files you added brought some hidden dependencies - go have a look for some imported 'Spirit' module, that should clearify why dmd (not dub(!) - it's dmd which fails to look for said import) can't find the file.
The C:\Users path seems to be a last resort where dmd looks for imported files.
[Edit] It's failing to link the entire thing whereas it should fail to compile all the stuff - that could be a hint either.

why does installing imblearn with pip is failing?

I am trying to install the python package "imblearn" to balanace datasets,

I've condensed this to show the key part of the error:
Collecting scipy>=1.3.2
Using cached scipy-1.9.3.tar.gz (42.1 MB)
...
..\..\meson.build:57:0: ERROR: Unknown compiler(s): [['ifort'], ['gfortran'], ['flang'], ['pgfortran'], ['g95']]
Which is saying that scipy==1.9.3 failed to compile because a Fortran compiler was not availalbe.
This is probably caused by a 32-bit version of Python / Windows, since pre-compiled scipy and scikit-learn wheels are being phased out for 32-bit systems, and we're no longer testing 32-bit Windows in imblearn (see PR#936).
One possible fix is to install a copy of Python with Anaconda or Miniconda, then:
conda install -c conda-forge imbalanced-learn

libtool can't find the la when linking with option -L

I met the problem when compiling the source code of mpc which will depend on gmp.
The command to compile mpc is as below.

From the error message, we can see that the lib path has been indicated as -L/home/wy/tmp/gmp-6.2.0/ins/lib. But libtool still can't find the lib.
This is going to be hard to answer easily, but it seems like you have some other .la file that references it, and causes it to fail this way. Paths within .la files are always absolute. See this old blog post of mine for details.
My best guess for your particular case, is that you have an old copy of mpfr installed in /usr/local — and that is taking precedence over the one you want to use.
The problem appears to be in the MPFR configure scripts or makefile, not in MPC!
As you can see above, it's not looking for libgmp.la in the place you specified on the command-line, but in the default installation location. The reason for this is that the location of libgmp.la is specified incorrectly in libmpfr.la! It's not MPC's fault...
I was able to work around the problem by editing libmpfr.la, which you can find where you specified the MPFR libraries to go, and change the location to libgmp.la from /usr/lib/libgmp.la to the actual location where you targeted the GMP libraries.
The line in libgmp.la should look like this:
# Libraries that this one depends upon.
dependency_libs=' -L/your/mpfr/lib/target /your/gmp/lib/target/libgmp.la
Where "/your/mpfr/lib/target" should be where you told MPFR to put its library files, and "/your/gmp/lib/target" needs to be changed to where you told GMP to put its library files.

Apache Axis2/C Installation

i have tried installing Apache Axis2/C on Linux but no success.. with libxml2
Here are my efforts
1) libxml2 was installed successfully
Flags : LIBXML2_CFLAGS = -I/usr/local/include/libxml2
LIBXML2_LIBS='-L/usr/local/lib/hpux32 -lxml2 -lz -lpthread -liconv -lm'
AXIS2C_HOME = /tmp
LD_LIBRARY_PATH = {$LD_LIBRARY_PATH}:$AXIS2C_HOME/lib
Ran --prefix=${AXIS2C_HOME} --enable-libxml2=yes
Installation fails with following error:
checking whether to build libxml2 xml parser library... checking pkg-config is at least version 0.9.0... ./configure[21268]: /local/lib/hpux32.

yes
checking for LIBXML2... configure: error: The pkg-config script could not be found or is too old. Make sure it
is in your PATH or set the PKG_CONFIG environment variable to the full
path to pkg-config.
Alternatively, you may set the environment variables LIBXML2_CFLAGS
and LIBXML2_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config.
See the pkg-config man page for more details.
i do not hold pkg-config utility but i have set LIBXML2_CFLAGS and LIBXML2_LIBS, configuration file does not have any information.
can someone please assist here?

Makefile Error after adding C mysql libs Eclipse CDT

the mysql library path to the library paths setting
Now, when I make my project, the compilation throws an error when I run the application.
This is the build:
10:08:56 **** Build of configuration Debug for project mysqlapp ****
make all
Building file: ../src/mysqlapp.c
Invoking: Cygwin C Compiler
gcc -I"C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Connector C 6.0.2\include" -O0 -g3 -Wall -c -fmessage-length=0 -MMD -MP -MF"src/mysqlapp.d" -MT"src/mysqlapp.d" -o "src/mysqlapp.o" "../src/mysqlapp.c"
cygwin warning:

Preferred POSIX equivalent is: /cygdrive/c/Users/Yonaton/workspace/mysqlapp/Debug
CYGWIN environment variable option "nodosfilewarning" turns off this warning.
Consult the user's guide for more details about POSIX paths:

And this is the run within eclipse:

Under Project->Properties->C/C++ General->Paths and Symbols->Libraries do not add the file name of the library, nor the path.
So if you want to link against /lib64/libz.so just add z.
Or alternativly add the z under Project->Properties->C/C++ Build->Settings->GCC Linker->Libraries.
If the library is not located under a standard path add the custom search path for a library under Project->Properties->C/C++ General->Paths and Symbols->Libraries Paths.
Update (referring "multiple target patterns"):
make does not like DOS paths. In the .d file a : after the drive letter is interpreted as target delimiter.
Switch to UNIX paths (as you were already told to do ... ;-)).
(see also: "multiple target patterns" Makefile error)
If I remember correctly "-l" ( small L) before your libraries.

freeradius module failing to launch

I have this problem with freeradius module.
I'm trying to add my custom module, but after I launch radius server in debug mode it shows me this error:
/usr/local/etc/raddb/modules/m2[2]: Failed to link to module 'rlm_m2': libmysql.so.16: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
/usr/local/etc/raddb/sites-enabled/default[224]: Failed to load module "m2".
/usr/local/etc/raddb/sites-enabled/default[69]: Errors parsing authorize section.
My system is Ubuntu 12, all mysql packages are installed correctly(there does exist libmysql.so.16 in usr/lib/mysql) freeradius runs smoothly with default parameters and so on. I really don't have an idea what exactly can't find this mysql library or how to show it to it.
Try compile like this:
gcc -I/usr/include/mysql rlm_m2.c -o rlm_m2 -lmysqlclient -lnsl -lm -lz\
-L/usr/lib/mysql -L/usr/lib/mysql -L/usr/lib64/mysql
