  What are the *rest* of the errors?  There are usually additional errors, like "library not found", or "unknown symbol", etc.

  Please don't post summaries of complex problems.  It's much more productive to copy the *actual* errors to the list.

  Without more information, it's impossible to say.

  The build system uses tools from your OS in order to link libraries.  So if linking libraries doesn't work, it's generally the fault of the tools in your OS.
