greetings, i'm having some problems compiling nntpcached on a linux box - Linux lennon.vianet.net.au 2.0.36 #4 Mon Apr 5 11:51:05 WST 1999 i686 unknown Red Hat Linux release 5.2 (Apollo) this box happily compiles the kernel, squid and perl, so it's not a problem with the compiler. i've tried 2.3.3 - [root@lennon nntpcache-2.3.3]# make --snip-- make[2]: Entering directory `/root/src/nntpcache-2.3.3/src' gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I.. -I../cf -I../common -I../libproff -I../libconfused -I../mmap -I../libmmalloc -I../libdbz -g -O2 -Wall -pipe -c expire.c expire.c: In function `getFreeFS': expire.c:14: storage size of `fs' isn't known expire.c:15: warning: implicit declaration of function `statvfs' expire.c:14: warning: unused variable `fs' make[2]: *** [expire.o] Error 1 make[2]: Leaving directory `/root/src/nntpcache-2.3.3/src' make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/root/src/nntpcache-2.3.3' make: *** [all-recursive-am] Error 2 and the latest beta (which apparently fixes this problem) - [root@lennon nntpcache-2.4.0b3]# make --snip-- make[2]: Entering directory `/root/src/nntpcache-2.4.0b3/src' gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I.. -I../cf -I../common -I../libproff -I../libconfused -I../mmap -I../libmmalloc -I../libdbz -g -O2 -Wall -pipe -c expire.c expire.c: In function `getFreeFS': expire.c:20: storage size of `fs' isn't known expire.c:21: warning: implicit declaration of function `statvfs' expire.c:20: warning: unused variable `fs' make[2]: *** [expire.o] Error 1 make[2]: Leaving directory `/root/src/nntpcache-2.4.0b3/src' make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/root/src/nntpcache-2.4.0b3' make: *** [all-recursive-am] Error 2 i tried to get to the archives for this list, but the web-based version doesn't appear to exist any more and the ftp version returned connect refused, so i'm sorry if this is a faq. i would prefer to compile this thing myself (ie i don't want to install the rpm). i would appreciate any help in resolving this issue. thanks, byron -- byron jones ---------------------- systems administrator vianet australia http://www.vianet.net.au/~byron
