Problem with building httpd without /dev/random, link of htpasswd fails: ERROR: Undefined symbol: .apr_generate_random_bytes

Tue, 12 Oct 2010 08:48:10 -0700 

Error message during make all in support:

ld: 0711-317 ERROR: Undefined symbol: .apr_generate_random_bytes
 .apr_generate_random_bytes [46]    ER PR htpasswd.c(.libs/htpasswd.o)
                                   0000001c .text    R_RBR    [521]
<.seed_rand>

Using gcc on AIX 4.3.3 with following configure command:

./configure \
        --prefix=/usr/local/apache2 \
        --enable-layout=Apache \
        --enable-module=so \
        --enable-mods-shared=all \
        --disable-auth_digest \
        --with-z=/usr/local

I have the disable of auth_digest because configue complained that it could
not complete without /dev/random or egb installed. I prefer not to install
egb.

Suggestions for how I can 'neatly' satisfy htpasswd need for
apr_generate_random_bytes() are appreciated!

HTTP 2.2.13 code btw.

Many thanks.
