I'd like to recompile the Bnews software using shared libraries and the stock cc. Could someone please post (or Email) the necessary info to do this? (i.e., a sample localize.sh would be great).

The easiest way to compile any program with the shared libraries is to use shcc. This is a replacement for the cc command, and automatically links in the shared libraries. I have been using it as cc and forget the problems of the shared libraries. Being a neighbor of trux, I will mail it to you. Once you have it, just compile bnews normally, an you will end up with a much smaller executable. Forget trying to change the configuration files, it's a pain and is not necesssary. Using shcc can be a problem when trying to create Makefiles for the public. I have to remember to link in the shared libraries by hand:-(. Everybody should get shcc. -- Tom Tkacik ...uunet!edsews!rphroy!tkacik GM Research Labs tkacik@kyzyl.mi.org "I'm president of the United States, and I'm not going to eat anymore broccoli." --- George Bush
