[comp.soft-sys.andrew] Help Request on Build Failure

brianc@saintjoe.edu (Brian Capouch) (03/07/90)

I'm really in a jam now.. .. .. .. in order to gain enough room to build the
new release of Andrew, I had to delete all of the previous tree. And 
now, the build won't build. 

Six and half hours into the build, a meltdown building in /atkams/messages/lib:

doload:  Errors while processing
doload:  Undefined symbol: _h_errno
doload:  Undefined symbol: _res_search
doload:  Undefined symbol: _dn_skipname
doload:  Undefined symbol: _dn_expand
doload:  Undefined symbol: __res
doload:  Undefined symbol: _res_init
doload:  Errors while processing
doindex: NULL entrypoint from amsn.do...program terminated!
*** Error code 1
make: Fatal error: Command failed for target `amsn.do'

Everything else for all those hours seemed to be OK.  And of course, since 
I'm not an Andrew programmer, I don't know how to fix this--it appears to 
be something makedo was mad about.  The command that caused this was:

/usr/andrew/bin/makedo  -d /usr/andrew/lib -b /usr/andrew/bin -o amsn.do  amsn.o
 stubs.o  /usr/andrew/lib/libcui.a /usr/andrew/lib/libcuin.a  /usr/andrew/lib/li
bmssrv.a  /usr/andrew/lib/libeli.a /usr/andrew/lib/librxp.a  /usr/andrew/lib/lib
msshr.a  /usr/andrew/lib/libmail.a /usr/andrew/lib/liberrors.a  /usr/andrew/lib/
libutil.a

To save space, I do not report that "doindex" complained about all those
references right above this point. 

Could I have done something wrong?  I can't get into messages now to read 
whether someone previously found this.  Oh woe.  

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
