Whoa, your replies already showed up in the archive, and I haven't received yet. What kind of email server does yahoo have??? Anyway, following Rob's suggestion, I did the patch, and it can get pass that issue. Rich, I have perl in my path (perl v5.8.3), but I don't think the build script actually generated the files oiddata.h/c. Both files are there, but the last modify time seems to date back to 2002-01-04. And the oidgen.perl is there too. Now, I'm getting a new problem: rm -f .libs/client.lo cc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I.. -I../include -I../plugins -I../include -I/tmp/fedora-ds-build/include -I/tmp/fedora-ds-build/include -I/tmp/fedora-ds-build/include -Wall -W -I/tmp/fedora-ds-build/include -L/tmp/fedora-ds-build/lib -O2 -pipe -I/tmp/fedora-ds-build/include -L/tmp/fedora-ds-build/lib -O2 -pipe -I/tmp/fedora-ds-build/include -L/tmp/fedora-ds-build/lib -O2 -pipe -MT client.lo -MD -MP -MF .deps/client.Tpo -c client.c -fPIC -DPIC -o .libs/client.lo client.c:64: error: static declaration of 'global_callbacks' follows non-static declaration saslint.h:112: error: previous declaration of 'global_callbacks' was here make[4]: *** [client.lo] Error 1 make[4]: Leaving directory `/home/csp/redhat/dsbuild/ds/cyrus-sasl/work/cyrus-sasl-2.1.20/lib' make[3]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 make[3]: Leaving directory `/home/csp/redhat/dsbuild/ds/cyrus-sasl/work/cyrus-sasl-2.1.20' make[2]: *** [all] Error 2 make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/csp/redhat/dsbuild/ds/cyrus-sasl/work/cyrus-sasl-2.1.20' make[1]: *** [build-work/cyrus-sasl-2.1.20/Makefile] Error 2 make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/csp/redhat/dsbuild/ds/cyrus-sasl' make: *** [dep-../../ds/cyrus-sasl] Error 2 :( thx sz __________________________________ Yahoo!
