libdivsufsort - compatible with sdsl-lite? about andi

[kloetzl]

I don't know. Does sdsl-lite install libdivsufsort as a dynamic library for the whole system? If so, linking is possible. If it just builds and links libdivsufsort statically, then that is not possible. Can't tell, though, I am not a CMake expert.

As it currently stands, it only creates static libraries:

/home/linuxbrew/.linuxbrew/Cellar/sdsl-lite/2.1.1/lib/pkgconfig/libdivsufsort.pc
/home/linuxbrew/.linuxbrew/Cellar/sdsl-lite/2.1.1/lib/pkgconfig/libdivsufsort64.pc
/home/linuxbrew/.linuxbrew/Cellar/sdsl-lite/2.1.1/lib/libdivsufsort.a
/home/linuxbrew/.linuxbrew/Cellar/sdsl-lite/2.1.1/lib/libdivsufsort64.a

I think they come from the same authors?

libdivsufsort is by Yuta Mori whereas sdsl is by Simon Gog. I don't think they have anything to do with each other.

[tseemann]

That's an unfortunate coincidence!

sdsl should use the system-wide installation of libdivsufsort instead of making its own static build. I am closing this as won't fix.
