I'm trying to compile the Lotech framework under Debian Jessie, but I'm can't seem to get past a specific point in compilation. I've searched the error messages that come up, and almost all of them seem to be resolved by installing or linking a missing dependency, but I can't figure out what that dependency is in this situation. 

cp buildtmp.linux/liblt.a linux/
cd clients/glfw/ && make LTCFLAGS="-O3 -DNDEBUG -DLTLINUX " && cp ltclient ../../
make[1]: Entering directory `/home/jake/Desktop/copy-lotech-master/clients/glfw'

For me this does the trick

set (CMAKE_CXX_LINK_EXECUTABLE "${CMAKE_CXX_LINK_EXECUTABLE} -ldl")

DSO means Dynamic Shared Object. Add the option "-lpthread" works for me.

    when you way "works for me", do you actually mean you reproduced the asker's exact problem scenario and solved it in this way? Or are you referring to a separate problem that you were personally facing? Gelldur's answer involves linking to a DLL-related library, and the asker's error message refers to a DLL-related function. I can't see how libpthread would fix a missing DLL symbol. – starball Sep 05 '22 at 22:17
  • Yes, I got the error message as the asker's. The error was gone after I added "-lpthread" option in linking stage. – sxu Sep 09 '22 at 17:12

    Interesting. If you have more insight into why this error occurs and why this fixes it, that would be a great addition to your answer. – starball Sep 09 '22 at 19:56
