That seemed to get me past that 'configure' difficulty , But of course there is now another during 'make' :-( . What include file am I missing now ? This is surely symptomatic of a missing include file or include file version level . I've searched the whole of my logging system & not found any .h file with this symbol defined on it . This is getting disheartening . Eventlog compiled w/o any problems at all . [...] logmatcher.c: In function `log_matcher_pcre_re_compile': logmatcher.c:534: error: `PCRE_NEWLINE_ANYCRLF' undeclared (first use in this function)
Your pcre is probably too old. Either compile with --disable-pcre, or upgrade pcre. HTH Yes it did help . But again another symbol is missing . This one seems to be in the tls libraries .
I'd like to suggest that the maintainer of the configure.in start checking for these symbols or AT LEAST the appropriate versions of the libraries these symbols reside in . The checking is obviosly not being done correctly or completely . As both of these symbols have been caught during compile time not during the checking that configure does .
Also Please remember not every system out there is able to be deeply upgraded at many of its library levels .
I remember having to dig out missing symbols back when I managed a Ultrix system (on a uVax) trying to get pppd and tools to compile . And just about any other tool I wanted on that system . But heck that was back in 1990 (and a little later) . Then a little bit after that as Linux began being the one OS I tended to lean toward . But most packages have progressed very nicely since then & I have not had to even think about these types of difficulties in some many years .
But I do have to admit this system needs a to the roots upgrade . Which I am working toward , But even that's getting a tad slowed down . Sorry about the rant . Please take that suggestion to heart tho .

Now I am confused , There is a .h file with the necessary symbol definition on my system & configure did not use that include file obviously . Unless there is something in the ld commands that forces the use of a *.so|*.a file instead (something like '-Bdynamic, -dy, -call_shared' ... ? I had just finished updating openssl (several days ago) & running ldconfig as well afterward in order to re-compile my ssh . # dir /usr/include/openssl/x509_vfy.h 24 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 20782 2009-11-22 12:05 /usr/include/openssl/x509_vfy.h Lets see what the symbols definition looks like . # grep -C1 X509_VERIFY_PARAM_set_flags /usr/include/openssl/x509_vfy.h int X509_VERIFY_PARAM_set1_name(X509_VERIFY_PARAM *param, const char *name); :int X509_VERIFY_PARAM_set_flags(X509_VERIFY_PARAM *param, unsigned long flags); int X509_VERIFY_PARAM_clear_flags(X509_VERIFY_PARAM *param, Just in case there are more than one installed instance of openssl , It could have been hiding in /usr/local or some such , like I said this is an old box . # find / -xdev -name x509_vfy.h -ls 3565418 24 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 20782 Nov 22 12:05 /usr/include/openssl/x509_vfy.h ./configure 2>&1 | tee syslog-ng-3.0.4_make.log make 2>&1 | tee -a syslog-ng-3.0.4_make.log The lastest of the above file is available if needed at http://www.baby-dragons.com/syslog-ng-build-problems/syslog-ng-3.0.4_make.lo... $ cat /etc/slackware-version Slackware 10.2.0 $ /usr/src/linux/scripts/ver_linux If some fields are empty or look unusual you may have an old version.
