Hi
I have been trying for several days to get a program called 'Cfengine'
to compile on AIX 5.3.
I have all the neccesary GNU packages installed and lib paths etc seem
ok. The configure script checks fine. Make looks good most of the way
and finally gives the below error:
----

if gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I. -I/opt/freeware/include
-D_THREAD_SAFE -w -g -O2 -Wreturn-type -Wmissing-prototypes

then mv -f ".deps/package.Tpo" ".deps/package.Po"; else rm -f

information.
collect2: ld returned 8 exit status
make[2]: *** [cfagent] Error 1

-----

I have tried many different options. At first the problem was pthreads
which was fixed by installing libgcc and running configure like:
LIBS=-lpthread ./configure
Have the following GNU tools installed with the latest versions:
glibc (libgcc), gcc, flex, libtool, bison, automake, make, autoconf,
m4, pth, pth-devel

any ideas??

Thanks,
Jim

You'll need to specify -lm (the math library), after making sure
that bos.adt.libm is installed.

Add the -lm option when linking (math library)

Thanks Gary and Patrick
I tried adding the -lm flag in the make file (see below) but I get the
same error. am I not doing this correctly?
Please let me know if there is anything else in the makefile that may
be important for you too look at.
thanks again

Is the Math library installed?

No, I think those are compile flags, not final link flags. Look for
another var.

And ensure bos.adt.libm is installed. (lslpp -l bos.adt.libm)

Thanks
bos.adt.libm is not installed. I will try to get it installed, but I
am new to AIX.
I think this is the correct var and flag ?:
LDFLAGS="-lm"

Thanks Dave, Gary, and Patrick

Got bos.adt.ibm installed and configured with
LDFLAGS=-lm ./configure --with-openssl=/opt/freeware
make

worked fine
thanks again
