Dear Ladies and Gentlemen, I am writing to report that ntop-2.2c fails to compile on FreeBSD 4.8-RELEASE
(probably all the 4-x branch since the POSIX thread implementation has not changed AFAIK, and ntop 2.2 would formerly compile on 4.7-RELEASE). I am not sure if 2.2c is intended for *BSD systems; it may well have been targetted at NPTL systems (Red Hat 8 and 9) but if so, the failure is pc09011> gmake cd . && /bin/sh ./missing --run echo gmake all-recursive gmake[1]: Entering directory `/usr/home/anwsmh/build/ntop-2.2c/ntop/ntop' cd . && /bin/sh ./missing --run echo Making all in . gmake[2]: Entering directory `/usr/home/anwsmh/build/ntop-2.2c/ntop/ntop' cd . && /bin/sh ./missing --run echo /usr/local/bin/bash ./libtool --mode=link gcc -DFREEBSD -g -O2 -Wshadow -Wpointer-arith -Wmissing-prototypes -Wmissing-declarations -Wnested-externs -fPIC -DFREEBSD -g -O2 -Wshadow -Wpointer-arith -Wmissing-prototypes -Wmissing-declarations -Wnested-externs -fPIC -o ntop ntop-main.o ntop-admin.o libntopreport.la libntop.la -lxml2 -lc_r -lssl -lcrypto -lpcap -lgdbm -lc -lcrypt -L/home/anwsmh/build/ntop-2.2c/ntop/gdchart0.94c/zlib-1.1.4 -lz -Wl,--rpath -Wl,/home/anwsmh/build/ntop-2.2c/ntop/gdchart0.94c -lgdchart -L/usr/local//lib -lgd -L/home/anwsmh/build/ntop-2.2c/ntop/gdchart0.94c/gd-1.8.3/libpng-1.2.4 -lpng gcc -DFREEBSD -g -O2 -Wshadow -Wpointer-arith -Wmissing-prototypes -Wmissing-declarations -Wnested-externs -fPIC -DFREEBSD -g -O2 -Wshadow -Wpointer-arith -Wmissing-prototypes -Wmissing-declarations -Wnested-externs -fPIC -o .libs/ntop ntop-main.o ntop-admin.o -Wl,--rpath -Wl,/home/anwsmh/build/ntop-2.2c/ntop/gdchart0.94c ./.libs/libntopreport.so -L/home/anwsmh/build/ntop-2.2c/ntop/gdchart0.94c/zlib-1.1.4 -L/usr/local//lib -L/home/anwsmh/build/ntop-2.2c/ntop/gdchart0.94c/gd-1.8.3/libpng-1.2.4 ./.libs/libntop.so -lxml2 -lc_r -lssl -lcrypto -lpcap -lgdbm -lc -lcrypt -lz -lgdchart -lgd -lpng -Wl,--rpath -Wl,/usr/local/ntop-2.2c/lib /usr/lib/libc.so: WARNING! setkey(3) not present in the system! /usr/lib/libc.so: warning: this program uses gets(), which is unsafe. /usr/lib/libc.so: warning: mktemp() possibly used unsafely; consider using mkstemp() /usr/lib/libc.so: WARNING! des_setkey(3) not present in the system! /usr/lib/libc.so: WARNING! encrypt(3) not present in the system! /usr/lib/libc.so: warning: tmpnam() possibly used unsafely; consider using mkstemp() /usr/lib/libc.so: warning: this program uses f_prealloc(), which is not recommended. /usr/lib/libc.so: WARNING! des_cipher(3) not present in the system! /usr/lib/libc.so: warning: tempnam() possibly used unsafely; consider using mkstemp() ./.libs/libntop.so: undefined reference to `pthread_atfork' gmake[2]: *** [ntop] Error 1 gmake[2]: Leaving directory `/usr/home/anwsmh/build/ntop-2.2c/ntop/ntop' gmake[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 gmake[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/home/anwsmh/build/ntop-2.2c/ntop/ntop' gmake: *** [all] Error 2 pc09011> On this system, the POSIX thread libary functions are implemented in libc_r. This libray has no pthread_atfork() symbol. I have submitted (I think) a census report on the failure. For my tiny applications, ntop-2.2 is quite adequate. However, in view of the work that has been done back porting bug fixes to the 2.2 series, I thought I would try it out. Yours sincerely. -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Stanley Hopcroft ------------------------------------------------------------------------ '...No man is an island, entire of itself; every man is a piece of the continent, a part of the main.
