[comp.unix.admin] tn3270 4.1.1+ make problems, continued

edotto@ux1.cso.uiuc.edu (Ed Otto) (04/30/91)

Well, I got several responses to my previous question, and most respondees
indicated that I did not give enough info to help me.

I DID get a copy of 4.1.1+ from the net via archie this morning, and
have encountered a DIFFERENT set of hassles:

Hardware:  VAX 11/785
System:    Ultrix 3.1

Problem:  During the make, during the cc step, the cc command displays on the
screen, followed by the message:

ld: -lresolv : cannot open

Now, I understand that somewhere the compiler is passed resolv as the name of
a library;  that library does not exist either on my system or as part of the 
tn3270 package.

Perchance, is this an indicator that a flag is getting set wrong by the 
makefile?  Is it asking the compiler to resolve references so that the
define of __putchar won't occur twice?

I am really lost, as I do not know C well enough to program my out of a paper
bag in it...
