Обсуждение: Compiling problems with Solaris 8 and PG 7.1

Guys,
I'm still having problems compiling postgres under solaris 8 (Sparc HW).
The problem is I'm not making it through the config process, here is a
snipplet of the config.log files. Can anyone make any sense of this ?
=========================================================================================================


-- configure:6849: gcc -o conftest      conftest.c -lz -lresolv -lgen
-lnsl -lsocket -ldl -lm -lreadline -ltermcap  1>&5
configure: failed program was:
#line 6845 "configure"
#include "confdefs.h"
int main() { return 0; }

Is this the one where you get the complaint

If so, the problem is likely that gcc and the linker are searching
shared-library directories that are not in your LD_LIBRARY_PATH setting.

Please make sure that:

(1) /usr/local/lib is in your LD_LIBRARY_PATH

(2) you are not using GNU ld
