hi, i'm trying to install syslog-ng1.6.2 with libol0.3.13. libol works fine - my problem is syslog-ng. i get the error below after 'make'. i thought flex was missing but after installing flex i got the same error. i read in the syslog-ng archive about a similar problem and someone wrote that the problem ist the line "LEXLIB" in the "src/Makefile" which should be set to "-lfl" but i don't know what i have to change the line to. my line looks like: "LEX = /usr/local/src/syslog-ng/missing flex" any suggestions?
