>Organization:

>Environment:
FreeBSD shields.iad.above.net 2.2.8-RELEASE FreeBSD 2.2.8-RELEASE #0: Mon Nov 30 06:34:08 GMT 1998     jkh@time.cdrom.com:/usr/src/sys/compile/GENERIC  i386

>Description:
If ORBit is not installed, then trying to build it from the ports
directory will fail when it gets to src/services/event, because it needs
to link with the new libraries in ../../../src/{orb,IIOP}/.libs.
Those directories are added to LD_LIBRARY_PATH but not as -L arguments,
so the linker doesn't find them.

A workaround is to copy the new libORBit.so* and libIIOP.so* files to
/usr/local/lib after the make fails, and then restart it.
>How-To-Repeat:
Install a clean 2.2.8 system, cd /usr/ports/devel/ORBit, make.
>Fix:
Add -L arguments that parallel the additions to LD_LIBRARY_PATH.
