My problem is that libz on some of the remote systems is not current. I'm
compiling on the development server with 1.1.4 now and some of the older
remote systems have 1.1.3. I guess I have some recompiling to do to bring
all of the remote systems up-to-date.

Thanks,

Dean

I'm taking a guess at your problem, based on something I've seen on
Solaris. Recent versions of gcc will configure themselves to use a
shared libgcc.so, and that library will then have to be in the runtime
on each target system. It seems rather a poor idea for gcc ever to
configure that way, unless it's the stock vendor-provided compiler for
the system. I'm not sure what the value is believed to be.

There are several solutions to this, if it's your problem. The easiest
is to delete libgcc.so from your gcc library directory. On my system, it
was at [/usr/local]/lib/gcc/sparc-sun-solaris2.9/3.4.1/libgcc.so* . You
also can modify the specs file.

You'll need to recompile gnupg (or distribute libgcc.so) in any case.
