RE: [Nel] Unable to compile nelns on linux

Cedric updated the scripts last week - he's on holiday this week and I'm
affraid we're a bit snowed under so we're unlikely to have time to look into
this 'till he gets back.

Subject: [Nel] Unable to compile nelns on linux


Hello,

One again, a bad news. After updating to the latest nelns code, I am now
unable to compiled it (on debian 3.0):

address@hidden:~/pub/NeL/code/nelns$
./configure --with-stlport=/usr/local/Installed/STLport4.5/ --with-stlport-i
nclude=/usr/local/Installed/STLport4.5/include/stlport --with-stlport-lib=/u
sr/local/Installed/STLport4.5/lib/ --with-nel=/usr/local/Installed/NeL/ --wi
th-nel-lib=/usr/local/Installed/NeL/lib --prefix=/usr/local/Installed/NeL/
[...]
checking for -lnelmisc... yes
[...]

address@hidden:~/pub/NeL/code/nelns$ nice make
[...]
make[2]: Entering directory `/home/david/pub/NeL/code/nelns/login_service'
/bin/sh ../libtool --mode=link
c++  -O3 -DNL_RELEASE   -D_REENTRANT -I/usr/local/Installed/STLport4.5/inclu
de/stlport -I/usr/local/Installed/NeL//include  -o login_service
connection_client.o connection_ws.o
login_service.o -lnelmisc -lnelnet -lcrypt -L/usr/local/Installed/STLport4.5
/lib/  -lstlport_gcc
c++ -O3 -DNL_RELEASE -D_REENTRANT -I/usr/local/Installed/STLport4.5/include/
stlport -I/usr/local/Installed/NeL//include -o login_service
connection_client.o connection_ws.o
login_service.o  -lnelmisc -lnelnet -lcrypt -L/usr/local/Installed/STLport4.
5/lib/ -lstlport_gcc
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lnelmisc
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

Adding -L/usr/local/Installed/NeL/lib allows the compilation:

/bin/sh ../libtool --mode=link
c++  -O3 -DNL_RELEASE   -D_REENTRANT -I/usr/local/Installed/STLport4.5/inclu
de/stlport -I/usr/local/Installed/NeL//include  -o login_service
connection_client.o connection_ws.o
login_service.o -lnelmisc -lnelnet -lcrypt -L/usr/local/Installed/STLport4.5
/lib/  -L/usr/local/Installed/NeL/lib -lstlport_gcc


As something been changed recently in the nelns/configure scripts?

Best regards,
d.

PS : I have added path to NeL and STLports libraries in
     ld.so.conf. Could it explain this bad behavior? I don't think so.

address@hidden:~/pub/NeL/code/nelns$ cat /etc/ld.so.conf
/usr/X11R6/lib
/usr/local/Installed/NeL/lib
/usr/local/Installed/STLport4.5/lib
