code/vpnserver.a: error adding symbols

[lyker]

When I try to make softether-vpnserver-v4.43-9799-beta-2023.08.31-linux-arm64-64bit.tar.gz on Raspery PI, which OS is Raspbian GNU/Linux 10 (buster), it fails with below error. run `ranlib code/vpnserver.a` cannot fix this error.

How to fix this issue?

[shakibamoshiri]

have you installed the Debian dependencies ?

Code: Select all

    apt-get update -y;
    apt-get install -y cmake gcc g++ make libncurses5-dev libssl-dev libsodium-dev libreadline-dev zlib1g-dev pkg-config;

Those tools/libs are needed for Debian

My system didn't install cmake and libsodium-dev. But after they are installed, I got the same error.

$ dpkg -l cmake gcc g++ make libncurses5-dev libssl-dev libsodium-dev libreadline-dev zlib1g-dev pkg-config

My system architeture armhf is a 32bit system but the image I'm trying to install is a 64bit image. Then I download a 32bit arm package softether-vpnserver-v4.43-9799-beta-2023.08.31-linux-arm-32bit.tar.gz. This time the new error is like below,

OK. I download another one softether-vpnserver-v4.43-9799-beta-2023.08.31-linux-arm_eabi-32bit.tar.gz which works on my system.
