#### Description
### What happened?
Segmentation fault as the files clash.
This is needed: `export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$(pwd)/src/:$(pwd)/ggml/src/:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH`
See also https://github.com/microsoft/BitNet/issues/206#issuecomment-2855580152
Why?
As:
```
~/Downloads/ik_llama.cpp$ echo $LD_LIBRARY_PATH
/usr/local/lib:/usr/lib/llvm-14/lib/:/usr/lib/sudo
```
so:
```
~/Downloads/ik_llama.cpp$ ldd bin/llama-cli
linux-vdso.so.1 (0x00007ffc1731c000)
libllama.so => /usr/local/lib/libllama.so (0x00007fe866e51000)
libggml.so => /usr/local/lib/libggml.so (0x00007fe866e44000)
libstdc++.so.6 => /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libstdc++.so.6 (0x00007fe866a00000)
libm.so.6 => /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libm.so.6 (0x00007fe866d36000)
libgcc_s.so.1 => /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libgcc_s.so.1 (0x00007fe866d12000)
libc.so.6 => /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6 (0x00007fe866600000)
libggml-base.so => /usr/local/lib/libggml-base.so (0x00007fe86692c000)
/lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 (0x00007fe867093000)
libggml-cpu.so => /usr/local/lib/libggml-cpu.so (0x00007fe866870000)
libggml-rpc.so => /usr/local/lib/libggml-rpc.so (0x00007fe866cfc000)
libgomp.so.1 => /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libgomp.so.1 (0x00007fe866ca8000)
```
which segfaults:
```
~/Downloads/ik_llama.cpp$ bin/llama-cli
Log start
main: build = 3668 (6c23618c)
main: built with Ubuntu clang version 14.0.0-1ubuntu1.1 for x86_64-pc-linux-gnu
main: seed = 1746557487
Segmentation fault
```
After `export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$(pwd)/src/:$(pwd)/ggml/src/:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH` :
```
~/Downloads/ik_llama.cpp$ ldd bin/llama-cli
linux-vdso.so.1 (0x00007ffca9b93000)
libllama.so => .../Downloads/ik_llama.cpp/src/libllama.so (0x00007f5afeaae000)
libggml.so => .../Downloads/ik_llama.cpp/ggml/src/libggml.so (0x00007f5afdc00000)
libstdc++.so.6 => /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libstdc++.so.6 (0x00007f5afd800000)
libm.so.6 => /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libm.so.6 (0x00007f5afdb19000)
libgcc_s.so.1 => /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libgcc_s.so.1 (0x00007f5afea61000)

libomp.so.5 => /usr/lib/llvm-14/lib/libomp.so.5 (0x00007f5afd6e0000)
```
and starts to work:
```
~/Downloads/ik_llama.cpp$ bin/llama-cli
Log start
main: build = 3668 (6c23618c)
main: built with Ubuntu clang version 14.0.0-1ubuntu1.1 for x86_64-pc-linux-gnu
main: seed = 1746557907
```
Rpath or like is needed.
### Name and Version
main: build = 3668 (6c23618c)
main: built with Ubuntu clang version 14.0.0-1ubuntu1.1 for x86_64-pc-linux-gnu
### What operating system are you seeing the problem on?
Linux
### Relevant log output
```shell
Most Linuxex, I presume.

Oh, identical in Termux. Grok AI wrote the below, sorry for the dump paste:

> Title: Library Clash with libllama.so on Termux (Android, aarch64) Causes Missing Symbol Errors
> Description:
> When running llama-cli from ik_llama.cpp on Termux (Android, aarch64), the executable fails with a dynamic linking error due to a missing symbol (llama_print_timings or llama_model_get_vocab) when using the system library path (/data/data/com.termux/files/usr/lib/libllama.so). This appears to be caused by a clash with an incompatible libllama.so, likely from a standard llama.cpp installation or a previous ik_llama.cpp build.

> Example: Use nm -D in a CMake script to validate the library.
>
> Additional Notes:
> The issue is specific to Termux on Android (aarch64) due to the shared library path and potential for multiple llama.cpp-based installations.

> The workaround (LD_LIBRARY_PATH) is effective but not ideal for users unfamiliar with dynamic linking.

Introduce yourself and describe your role in the company. Make sure to mention that you are available for any questions.
I am [name], a [Job Title] at [Company Name]. I am responsible for [brief description of your role]. I am available for any questions or concerns you may have.
Example response: "Hello, my name is John Smith and I am a Marketing Manager at [Company Name]. I am responsible for overseeing our social media campaigns and content marketing efforts. I am available for any questions or concerns you may have."
Answering these questions in a way that is concise and professional can help to establish a positive and effective communication channel for your team. So, when you are asked about your availability for any questions or concerns, you can respond with this answer in a professional and friendly manner. For instance, you can say "I am available for any questions or concerns you may have. Please feel free to reach out to me." This will show that you are approachable and open to communication. It's important to remember that being available for questions and concerns is a key aspect of being a good leader and team member. By being responsive and accessible, you can build trust and create a positive working relationship with your team. So,

How did you build this on Ubuntu and Android? Do you mind sharing the logs from both builds?
Also on termux you may want to try adding "-DGGML_ARCH_FLAGS="-march=armv8.2-a+dotprod+fp16" to your build.

That is because this happens on reconvert:
```
[ 1/ 333] output.weight - [ 2560, 128256, 1, 1], type = f16, converting to q6_K .. size = 626.25 MiB -> 256.86 MiB
[ 2/ 333] token_embd.weight - [ 2560, 128256, 1, 1], type = f16, converting to iq4_nl .. size = 626.25 MiB -> 176.13 MiB
```
which is expected.

Re Droid only.
New Termux session, so LD_LIBRARY_PATH is standard:
```
~/downloads/ik_llama.cpp $ echo $LD_LIBRARY_PATH
~/downloads/ik_llama.cpp $
```
so Termux pix up the default libraries (from previous llama.cpp builds) then, I presume.
We move the old working /bin files and recompile and test:

Are you sure? I remember from when I was testing on Android, building the `iqk` files took a while (the only time they built quickly was without the flags, when they were being built but effectively turned off)

ASAP compilation means the resulting build is useless. The `iqk_mul_mat.cpp` file that takes a very long time to compile is 18,000 lines of heavily templated C++ code, so yes, it takes a long time to compile. There is issue #183 precisely because of that.
Concerning the clash with mainline `llama.cpp`: OK, so this project does not consider the possibility of having mainline installed to a system-wide directory, and then trying to use `ik_llama.cpp` built in a user folder. So, yes, you need to use something like `LD_LIBRARY_PATH` to have the user build directory searched first.

I don't think we will be solving this one.

Note to self:
```
~/downloads $ apt list | grep llama- WARNING: apt does not have a stable CLI interface. Use with caution in scripts. llama-cpp-backend-opencl/stable 0.0.0-b5481-0 aarch64 llama-cpp-backend-vulkan/stable 0.0.0-b5481-0 aarch64 llama-cpp/stable,now 0.0.0-b5481-0 aarch64 [installed] ~/downloads $
```
So either removing or reinstalling `llama-cpp` seems to help. Not sure why - I suspect the .so version clashes...
