Can't Build -- Receive Error "undefined reference to std::basic_ostream"
-
Hello. I'm trying to built Qt 4.8.3 under RedHat RHEL 5.8 (libc 2.5) with g++ versions 4.4.6 and 4.1.2. I use a simple configure (with and without -fast) and gmake only to get this undefined reference when linking.

This is very strange. If I manually cd into the directory and issue the g++ myself, it will compile. I have to do this over and over with different files in different directories, but it appears to be working. Why?

Hello.
I met the same "undefined reference to `std::basic_ostream<char ..."
with qt-everywhere-opensource-src-4.8.2, at same point, qmlplugindump, and many others, as Chris.In my case, this was due to coexistence of g++44 and default g++ (4.1.2) on our platform
Making C++='g++44' and CC='gcc44' was not enought, as LINK keeps "g++" from mkspecs/common/g++-base.conf.
In short, I had to change gcc/g++ by gcc44/g++44 in g++-base.conf itself.Hope this helps, even late!
Cheers,
Claude
