Hi Dave,
I just found that if I replace that Suitesparse=20
libs requirement from (as example)

AMD_LIBS =3D -lamd

to

AMD_LIBS =3D -Wc,-lamd

the build seems to work. But this is just a workaround.

About your question on liboctave_la_LINK/LIBS/LDADD/xFLAGS/

we currently have :

octlib_LTLIBRARIES =3D liboctave.la

LINK_DEPS =3D \
  $(RLD_FLAG) \
  ../libcruft/libcruft.la \
  $(SPARSE_LDFLAGS) $(SPARSE_XLIBS) \
  $(ARPACK_LIBS) \
  $(QRUPDATE_LIBS) \
  $(FFTW_LDFLAGS) $(FFTW_XLIBS) \
  $(LAPACK_LIBS) $(BLAS_LIBS) \
  $(READLINE_LIBS) $(TERM_LIBS) \
  $(LIBGLOB) $(REGEX_LIBS) $(DL_LIBS) \
  $(FLIBS) \
  $(PTHREAD_LIBS) $(LIBS)

liboctave_la_SOURCES =3D \
  $(LIBOCTAVE_SOURCES) \
  $(LIBOCT_READLINE_SOURCES) \
  $(LIBOCT_PATHSEARCH_SOURCES)

liboctave_la_LIBADD =3D $(LINK_DEPS)

liboctave_la_LDFLAGS =3D -release $(version)

But I see no liboctave_la_LIBS=20

The SPARSE libs are real static libs.

$ cygcheck -l libSuiteSparse-devel |grep lib
/usr/lib/libamd.a
/usr/lib/libbtf.a
/usr/lib/libcamd.a
/usr/lib/libccolamd.a
/usr/lib/libcholmod.a
/usr/lib/libcolamd.a
/usr/lib/libcsparse.a
/usr/lib/libcxsparse.a
/usr/lib/libklu.a
/usr/lib/libspqr.a
/usr/lib/libumfpack.a

while all the other libs are dinamic ones as :

$ cygcheck -l libarpack-devel |grep lib
/usr/lib/libarpack.a
/usr/lib/libarpack.dll.a
/usr/lib/libarpack.la

Regards
Marco
