xubuntu 12.10 Oculus SDK v0.2.3 make error

big thanks to Oculus for pushing out a Linux SDK. I am having a problem getting it installed though.

Fully updated xubuntu 12.10 install. gcc 4.7

What I tried:

Extracted ovr_sdk_linux_0.2.3.tar.gz to :
~/OculusSDK

successfully ran:
./ConfigurePermissionsAndPackages.sh

full output: http://pastebin.com/Uqa9a97M

ran "make all" and encountered the following error:

g++: error: unrecognized command line option ‘-Wl’

full make error output here: http://pastebin.com/zdWnDfwz 


../../LibOVR/Src/Kernel/OVR_Alg.h:56:50: warning: always_inline function might not be inlinable [-Wattributes]

make: *** [Samples/OculusWorldDemo/Release/OculusWorldDemo_Release/x86_64] Error 2

-------------------------------------

Running:
./ OculusConfigurationUtility.sh

produces a lib file:

libudev.so.0

attempting to enable permissions on it yields:

cos@DEADBEEF:~/OculusSDK$ sudo chmod a+rwx libudev.so.0
chmod: cannot operate on dangling symlink `libudev.so.0'

A gcc developer mentioned that ‘-Wl’ is likely not needed in gcc 4.7. but when I searched the makefile for it I was unable to locate it in order to remove the compiler option.

is there another makefile that contains '-Wl' that I can try removing it from?

am I building it in the wrong place?

Thanks in advance!

Any help in getting this built would be appreciated.

-------------------------------------
Thus far I have been unable to find:

installation instructions

supported distributions

dependencies

    so I removed it from:

    Samples/OculusWorldDemo/MakefileSamples/OculusWorldDemo/Makefile


    again I ran:
    sudo make

    cos@DEADBEEF:~/OculusSDK$ sudo make 
    make -C ./Samples/OculusWorldDemo DEBUG=0
    make[1]: Entering directory `/home/cos/.local/share/Trash/files/OculusSDK/Samples/OculusWorldDemo'

    This time it seemed to work. the demo also worked.

    Thanks everybody.

    I hope this helps someone else.

    I also ran into this issue with the '-Wl' being passed. Building on Ubuntu 13.04 with gcc 4.7.3.

    This is fixed in the community version. -wl appears to be an obsolete flag for gcc.
