Hi, just started using MRTG and then read about RRDTool. I have a few questions WRT to compiling RRDTool:
I am using Solaris 8. GNU gcc, Sun's make, and perl comes pre-installed with Solaris 8. However, I have to install libtool separately by downlaoding from sunfreeware.com. 1) configure problem with libtool When running ./configure, I get the the following: checking if libtool supports shared libraries... yes *** Warning: the command libtool uses to detect shared libraries, *** /usr/bin/file, produces output that libtool cannot recognize. *** The result is that libtool may fail to recognize shared libraries *** as such. This will affect the creation of libtool libraries that *** depend on shared libraries, but programs linked with such libtool *** libraries will work regardless of this problem. Nevertheless, you *** may want to report the problem to your system manager and/or to *** [email protected] Do I have to be worried about this warning message? 2) libpng and zlib The rrd-tools source comes with source for gd, libpng and zlib. Solaris 8 already comes with zlib while I have already installed libpng using the package from sunfreeware.com. ... while I have just installed gd as a result of using MRTG. What I did was change the Makefile in the src directory so that it is now: # SUBDIRS = cgilib-0.4 config gd1.3 zlib-1.1.3 libpng-1.0.9 src doc examples contrib tcl SUBDIRS = cgilib-0.4 config src doc examples contrib tcl However, when running make, I get: make: Fatal error: Don't know how to make target `../gd1.3/librrd_gd.la' Current working directory /export/home/jsalvo/rrdtool-1.0.33/src *** Error code 1 make: Fatal error: Command failed for target `all-recursive' Is there anyway to have an option in configure not to build libpng and zlib libraries and instead use ( including headers in the -I option of gcc ) the existing ones that I have?
