I am having trouble to compile with gcc on Sun Sparc OS5.8. The error message is: gcc -o help help.o ./../../src/lib/hlp.a ./../../src/lib/misc.a -L/usr/X/lib -lXaw -lXt -lXext -Bstatic -lXmu -Bdynamic -lX11 -lm -ltermlib -lsocket -lnsl Undefined first referenced symbol in file _dlopen /usr/lib/libc.a(nss_deffinder.o) _dlclose /usr/lib/libc.a(nss_deffinder.o) _dlsym /usr/lib/libc.a(nss_deffinder.o) ld: fatal: Symbol referencing errors. No output written to help collect2: ld returned 1 exit status *** Error code 1 PS. my gcc is 3.2.2 (2.8.1 also tried) Any clue to where the error might come from will be greatly appreciated.
