isdct 3.0.0 library problem

[TWalk4]

isdct-3.0.0.400-15.x86_64.rpm doesn't actually seem to work (appears to be a bad soname in a dependent lib?)..

# isdct show -intelssd

Error: Failed to find valid library: libIntel.SSDFeatures.so.2.0.0

But strace shows:

Huh?

# readelf -d /usr/lib/isdct/libIntel.SSDFeatures.so.2.0.0 | grep SONAME

0x000000000000000e (SONAME) Library soname: [tdk_interface_dll.so]

Hmm. dlopen() fails because the SONAME is wrong I presume?

[TWalk4 · Accepted solution]

Hmm, while the SONAME is indeed odd, it isn't the cause of this afterall. I'm repackaging these as DEBs before consuming and dh_strip (which just does strip --remove-section=.note --remove-section=.comment --strip-unneeded) seems to be mangling something (loses 80 bytes even when it doesn't drop any sections). Easy enough to disable in the repackaging.

Any chance Intel will provide "official" DEBs sometime soon?

Amusingly, the .comment tags suggest that the linux binaries are actually built on Ubuntu but then packaged into RPMs?

$ objdump -s --section .comment usr/lib/isdct/libIntel.SSDFeatures.so.1.2.0
