Error: Warning for Ignoring Duplicate Libraries on App Install and Startup

[kmesiab]

Description

When installing and starting the application, the linker (ld) emits a warning indicating that it is ignoring duplicate libraries, specifically -lobjc.

Error Message

ld: warning: ignoring duplicate libraries: '-lobjc'

Expected Behavior

The installation and startup process should occur without any warnings from the linker about duplicate libraries.

Actual Behavior

The linker outputs a warning about duplicate libraries, which could indicate a potential misconfiguration in the build settings or script.

Possible Solution

• Review the build settings and linker flags to ensure that the -lobjc flag is not included multiple times.
• Check any custom build scripts or makefiles for duplicate inclusion of libraries.
• Investigate the order and structure of the build process to identify where the duplication might occur.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Run the installation command or build process.
2. Observe the warning during the linking phase.

Impact

While this is currently a warning and does not prevent the application from running, it could mask other linking issues and may lead to undefined behavior if not addressed.

Environment

• Application version: [specify version]
• Operating System: [specify OS and version]
• Compiler/Linker version: [specify compiler/linker and version]

Additional Information

• If there are multiple build configurations, specify if this occurs in all or specific ones.
