[webkit-qt] Linking error: pthreads, sqlite3 order to linker

[Vivek Galatage]

Hello Qt-WebKit,

I am trying to build qt webkit from ToT on Linux Mint 14.

In that when it comes to linking with the following command:
g++ -m64 -Wl,--gc-sections -Wl,--no-undefined -Wl,--no-undefined -Wl,-O1
-Wl,-rpath,/opt/Qt5.0.2/5.0.2/gcc_64 -Wl,-rpath,/opt/Qt5.0.2/5.0.2/gcc_64
-Wl,-rpath,/opt/Qt5.0.2/5.0.2/gcc_64/lib
-Wl,-rpath-link,/opt/Qt5.0.2/5.0.2/gcc_64/lib -shared
-Wl,-Bsymbolic-functions -Wl,-soname,libQt5WebKit.so.5 -o

-lQt5Network -lQt5Gui -L/usr/X11R6/lib64 -lQt5Core
*-lpthread*-Wl,-whole-archive -lWebKit1 -Wl,-no-whole-archive

I get a lot of errors for undefined reference to pthread_*.

If you see the highlighted order above, pthread comes first before sqlite3.
So while searching for resolution of the above error, I stumbled upon
http://stackoverflow.com/a/11482524 which stated if we placed *pthread
aftersqlite
* it resolves the problem.

So I would like to know if there is anything wrong with my system setup or
how to resolve this error as I need to manually enter the linking command
every time.

Thank you,
Vivek
