Hi, I installed Debian Wheezy the other day to get access to a functional installation of firebird for testing purposes. In oder to build the firebird driver, I had to bend over backwards and issue the following commands:
LDFLAGS=-L/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu ./configure --with-firebird LDFLAGS=-L/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu make To a longtime FreeBSD user, the requirement of such an arcane LDFLAGS setting appears just odd. Have I been missing something in terms of linuxisms in the past couple of years? Does firebird offer something along the lines of "mysql-config" to deal with headers and libraries in a platform-independent way? At this time, the magic in acinclude.m4 fails to uncover the libraries on Debian. regards, Markus -- Markus Hoenicka http://www.mhoenicka.de AQ score 38 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The Go Parallel Website, sponsored by Intel - in partnership with Geeknet, is your hub for all things parallel software development, from weekly thought leadership blogs to news, videos, case studies, tutorials, tech docs, whitepapers, evaluation guides, and opinion stories.
