I solved the problem. Based on information from another post I checked the Makefile and found that it pointed to /usr/src/linux as an include directory... which doesn't exist on my system. I created link /usr/src/linux to point to /usr/src/linux-2.4 and then it worked. While this fixed the immediate problem I'm still not sure how I was able to compile it on RH73 and Trustix 2.0. I checked both of them and they don't have /usr/src/linux directories or links... but the bridge utilities compiled fine on them anyway. different dependencies maybe??? anyway, at least it works and just wanted to say so. -----Original Message----- From: "knetknight - mrb - pop" <knetknight@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: <fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Mon, 24 Nov 2003 07:40:22 -0600 Subject: can't compile ethernet bridge utilities I'm trying to build the bridge 0.9.6 binaries as downloaded from the source files at http://bridge.sourceforge.net. I've successfully built these binaries numerous times on redhat 7.3 and other distros but attempts to build them on Fedora bomb with the following during 'make'. (./configure seems to work just fine) I've placed comments in the output below to show where it deviates from my normal experience. I've tried 'export CC=gcc32' just before the ./configure step but that didn't help. Any insight is appreciated, thank you. for x in libbridge brctl doc; do (cd $x && make ); done make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/src/bridge-utils/libbridge' gcc -Wall -g -I/usr/src/linux/include -c libbridge_compat.c gcc -Wall -g -I/usr/src/linux/include -c libbridge_devif.c gcc -Wall -g -I/usr/src/linux/include -c libbridge_if.c gcc -Wall -g -I/usr/src/linux/include -c libbridge_init.c gcc -Wall -g -I/usr/src/linux/include -c libbridge_misc.c ## the following section is where the make process deviates from my normal experience. libbridge_misc.c: In function `__tv_to_jiffies': libbridge_misc.c:33: warning: implicit declaration of function `sysconf' libbridge_misc.c:33: error: `_SC_CLK_TCK' undeclared (first use in this function) libbridge_misc.c:33: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once libbridge_misc.c:33: error: for each function it appears in.) libbridge_misc.c: In function `__jiffies_to_tv': libbridge_misc.c:40: error: `_SC_CLK_TCK' undeclared (first use in this function) make[1]: *** [libbridge_misc.o] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/bridge-utils/libbridge' make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/src/bridge-utils/brctl' gcc -Wall -g -g -O2 -I../libbridge -I/usr/src/linux/include -c brctl.c gcc -Wall -g -g -O2 -I../libbridge -I/usr/src/linux/include -c brctl_cmd.c gcc -Wall -g -g -O2 -I../libbridge -I/usr/src/linux/include -c brctl_disp.c gcc brctl.o brctl_cmd.o brctl_disp.o -L ../libbridge -lbridge -o brctl /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lbridge collect2: ld returned 1 exit status make[1]: *** [brctl] Error 1 ## end of deviation make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/bridge-utils/brctl' make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/src/bridge-utils/doc' make[1]: Nothing to be done for `all'. make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/bridge-utils/doc' -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list **************************************** Interested in securing your e-mail and other communications? http://www.gnupg.org/download/index.html.en
