here's a little guide on how to compile gnugk (statically), you will need the following libraries for it: pwlib and openh323: http://sourceforge.net/projects/openh323 openssl: http://www.openssl.org/source/ "gnugk compile static" guide for linux (kernel 2.6.10): i compiled gnugk 2.2.2 statically from cvs (5th of march) with gcc-3.4.2, pwlib 1.8.3 (static), openh323 1.15.2 (static) and openssl 0.9.7e (static) and it works fine on fedora-core-3 and redhat-es30 on x86, even if he tells me that dlopen from glibc needs to be available on target machine to open dynamically ;-). i compiled statically not to touch any distribution versions of pwlib, openssl and openh323 on my system and to use executable on other machines with older linux os. order: compile openssl statically (check with "ldd <libraryname>" if static) link "<openssldir>/libcrypto.a" to "<openssldir>/lib/libcrypto.a" link "<openssldir>/libssl.a" to "<openssldir>/lib/libcrypto.a" "set OPENSSLDIR=<openssldir>" compile pwlib statically (optnoshared) (check with "ldd <libraryname>" if static) link "<pwlibdir>/lib/libpt_linux_x86_r_s.a" to "<pwlibdir>/lib/libpt_linux_x86_r.a" "set PWLIBDIR=<pwlibdir>" compile openh323 statically (optnoshared) (check with "ldd <libraryname>" if static) link "<openh323dir>/lib/libh323_linux_x86_r_s.a" to "<openh323dir>/lib/libh323_linux_x86_r.a" "set OPENH323DIR=<openh323dir>" correct paths in top level Makefile of openh323gk if necessary compile openh323gk statically (add "LDFLAGS+= -static" to top level Makefile of openh323gk!!!!) then do a "ldd <openh323gkdir>/obj_<os>_<arch>_r/gnugk" and there should be no libraries to need except glibc! if you might need "addpasswd" to generate passwords for ini-file, do a "make addpasswd" in my case i put all 4 packages to one directory (/usr/src): <openssldir>: /usr/src/openssl-0.9.7e <pwlibdir>: /usr/src/pwlib <openh323dir>: /usr/src/openh323 <openh323gkdir>: /usr/src/openh323gk let me know if this help.... regards, roland -----Original Message----- From: openh323gk-users-admin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:openh323gk-users-admin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Fred Sent: Monday, March 21, 2005 3:19 PM To: openh323gk-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Compiling error on Linux Hello All, I'm a new user of gnugk and I get a compiling error, the Linux I use is in french then I have to translate the error message : make[2]: *** No rule to make target « /usr/local/share/pwlib//lib/libpt_linux_x86_r.so », needed for « versionts.h ».Stop. pwlib and openh323 are well installed (I think) but maybe there's trouble with path..
