next in thread | raw e-mail | index | archive | help
We're running Linux compat, 4.4. The Oracle interface module will not "make" properly because the linker can't find "-lnsl" on behalf of the linux-intended binaries. I recall the library in question is under /usr/compat/linux but no matter what I do to the makefiles the linker refuses to find the library. I'm guessing the binaries (fail to) say where to find the library - they don't indicate a path, or indicate a path that doesn't exist, but that aspect of loading is silent. It could be real easy to fix by introducing a bogus directory to point to /usr/cpmpat/linux/lib but I don't know what name is expected. Has anyone else run into this? I notice that the port for this was announced, but it isn't available online yet. Yeah, I know - what's the name of the thing I'm talking about? I forget. if you don't already know, then you're probably not in a good position to help anyway, so never mind.
