Hi!
When I try to compile exim 2.053 on my Debian/GNU Linux 2.0 system,
make fails:
|gcc -o exim accept.o child.o daemon.o dbfn.o debug.o deliver.o direct.o directory.o dns.o drtables.o exim.o expand.o filter.o globals.o header.o host.o log.o match.o moan.o os.o parse.o queue.o readconf.o retry.o rewrite.o route.o search.o smtp_in.o spool_in.o spool_out.o store.o string.o tod.o transport.o tree.o verify.o perl.o version.o \

If I understand things correctly, -lgdbm looks for libgdbm, which is
present:
|=>ROOT<=@torres:/home/mh/exim-2.053 # locate libgdbm
|/mnt/maindisk/usr/lib/libgdbm.so.1
|/mnt/maindisk/usr/lib/libgdbm.so.1.7.3
|/mnt/maindisk/usr/lib/libgdbm.so.2

|/lib/libdb-2.0.7.so
|/lib/libdb.so.2
|/mnt/maindisk/usr/lib/libdb.a
|/mnt/maindisk/usr/lib/libdb.so
|/mnt/maindisk/usr/lib/libdb2.so.2
|/mnt/maindisk/usr/lib/libdb2.so.2.3.16
|=>ROOT<=@torres:/home/mh/exim-2.053 # locate libndbm
|/mnt/maindisk/usr/lib/libndbm.a
|/mnt/maindisk/usr/lib/libndbm.so
|=>ROOT<=@torres:/home/mh/exim-2.053 #
I can't find where the makefile sets the search path for libraries
though.
The same Local/Makefile works fine with the exim-2.05 distribution.
What am I doing wrong?
Greetings
Marc
