[Aspell-user] Aspell 0.60.6 Installation Issues

[Lee, Tom J]

I've tried installing Aspell as a Solaris package but keep getting ld.so.1

fatal errors when I run it command-line under Solaris 10.  The error looks

like this.

 

leetj:08/14/09 13:42:17 /users/leetj>aspell

ld.so.1: aspell: fatal: relocation error: file /local/bin/aspell: symbol aerror_bad_mode_key: referenced symbol not found

Killed

 

Tried downloading the source.  After expanding the tarball and

running ./configure I get the following on the screen.

 

leetj:08/14/09 08:33:23 /users/leetj/work/aspell-0.60.6>./configure

If you meant to cross compile, use `--host'.

See `config.log' for more details.

 

The config.log has this segment.

What am I doing wrong?  I've spent over 2 days trying to install Aspell

on a new server with a new OS (Solaris 10).  I remember I had some

difficulties installing it on the old server with Solaris 9. 

 

Can someone please provide some assistance.
