I'm trying to compile mod_perl and it doesn't seem to see my gdbm library in /usr/libs:
ip046:/usr/local/src/mod_perl-1.16# perl Makefile.PL EVERYTHING=1 Configure mod_perl with ../apache/src ? [y] Shall I build httpd in ../apache/src for you? [y] Appending mod_perl to src/Configuration Using config file: /usr/local/src/mod_perl-1.16/src/Configuration Creating Makefile + configured for Linux platform + setting C compiler to gcc + setting C pre-processor to gcc -E + checking for system header files + adding selected modules + doing sanity check on compiler and options Note (probably harmless): No library found for -ldbm ld: cannot open -lgdbm: No such file or directory make: *** [dummy] Error 1 ** A test compilation with your Makefile configuration ** failed. This is most likely because your C compiler ** is not ANSI. Apache requires an ANSI C Compiler, such ** as gcc. The above error message from your compiler ** will also provide a clue. Aborting! It goes on, of course, and says everything's okay, but I'm kind of sketchy about this. Does anybody out there have a clue to what's going on? -- Christopher Fury Aerosoft, Inc ... a tale told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing.
