Hey everyone,<div><br></div><div>I&#39;m trying to compile syslog-ng 3.2.1 on CentOS 5.3 which is running glib 2.12.3-4, and get this error:</div><div><br></div><div><div>./.libs/libdbparser.so: undefined reference to `g_timeout_add_seconds&#39;</div>
<div>collect2: ld returned 1 exit status</div><div>make[5]: *** [pdbtool] Error 1</div><div>make[5]: Leaving directory `/usr/local/src/syslog-ng-3.2.1/modules/dbparser&#39;</div><div>make[4]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1</div>

<div>make: *** [all] Error 2</div></div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>As I understand g_timeout_add_seconds was added to glib 2.14, which CentOS doesn&#39;t support yet. Now my question is, there was a big filed a while ago about this, does balabit plan on implementing the old api for glib to support 3.2.1 for glib &lt; 2.14 ? Knowing the fact that CentOS is such a popular and wide distribution, why not make it easy for us and patch it?</div>
<div>Is my other choice to just compile it statically on a system running glib &gt;= 2.14 and then install the binary on the CentOS system?</div><div><br></div><div>Thanks,</div><div>Lutz</div><meta charset="utf-8">
