Hi, First: DO you have the bglibs installed ? looking at the package contents, there is only a libbgsysdeps.a (maybe check your system for all libbg files, see if there is a libbg-sysdeps.so/.a ... if there is something like libbgsysdeps.so/.a then you might need to tweak the build script, by changing: echo exec `head -n 1 conf-ld` -L. "-L'$${bglibs}'" '-o "$$main" "$$main.o" $${1+"$$@"}' -lbg-sysdeps; \ to echo exec `head -n 1 conf-ld` -L. "-L'$${bglibs}'" '-o "$$main" "$$main.o" $${1+"$$@"}' -lbgsysdeps; \ But check first, how the bg sysdeps lib is called on your sys and if it is there ...
