Maybe you've got something funny in /etc/make.conf? LD_LIBRARY_PATH is not set, and the only difference in my make.conf is that I set HAVE_MOTIF to yes, because I intend to install lesstif. > Sorry, these are just guesses.

Maybe I updated in the middle of a commit the last time.

All those undefined symbols are supposed to be in the "-lX11" library. I don't really know why you're getting them. Maybe you have an older version of the library lying around that is stripped? Try a "locate libX11.so" and see what's there. Then do "file libX11.so" on each one and see if it's stripped. Maybe your LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable is set, screwing up the build? Maybe you've got something funny in /etc/make.conf? Sorry, these are just guesses. I've never encountered the problem you're reporting. John -- John Polstra j...@polstra.com John D.

Ok, well in the interest of not sending large compile output to the news group, I've put an error log on my webserver with all the info in it: http://www.haunt.com/~steve/error.html As you will be able to see from the log, the only non-standard response to the build was I said YES to creating the a.out compat libraries. After the initial config section, I deleted the lines of the make output until the first error occurrs. Then all lines are included until the make finally fails. Let me know how if you need any other information. I'm more than willing to try different config for compile, and patches to my OS to help debug it.

Thanks for the report, but saying that it gets "tons of missing symbols" and that it "dies" when installing the server really isn't helpful to those who might be able to fix the problem. Which symbols? Let's see the error messages. How does it "die"? Let's see the error messages. Nobody can help without that. John -- John Polstra j...@polstra.com John D.
