Hi,

Hi, I'm getting the following error while making syslog:

[fhkfauaa@fhkfauaa ~/syslog-ng-2.0.6]$ make gmake all-recursive gmake[1]: Entering directory `/home/fhkfauaa/syslog-ng-2.0.6' Making all in src gmake[2]: Entering directory `/home/fhkfauaa/syslog-ng-2.0.6/src' gcc -g -O2 -Wall -o syslog-ng main.o libsyslog-ng.a -lpthread -lresolv -lnsl -lrt -lsocket -ldoor -Wl,-Bstatic -ll -Wl,-R/opt/local/lib -L/opt/local/lib -lglib-2.0 -lintl -liconv -L/usr/local/lib -levtlog -lwrap -Wl,-Bdynamic ld: fatal: library -ll: not found ld: fatal: File processing errors. No output written to syslog-ng collect2: ld returned 1 exit status gmake[2]: *** [syslog-ng] Error 1 gmake[2]: Leaving directory `/home/fhkfauaa/syslog-ng-2.0.6/src' gmake[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 gmake[1]: Leaving directory `/home/fhkfauaa/syslog-ng-2.0.6' gmake: *** [all] Error 2

As far as I can see, it's not finding libl. Here are all the libl's on the system:

[fhkfauaa@fhkfauaa ~/syslog-ng-2.0.6]$ find / -name libl.\* 2> /dev/null /usr/ccs/lib/amd64/libl.so /usr/ccs/lib/libl.so /usr/lib/amd64/libl.so /usr/lib/amd64/libl.so.1 /usr/lib/libl.so /usr/lib/libl.so.1 /usr/share/man/man3lib/libl.3lib

Any ideas?

You're trying to compile libl into syslog-ng statically. If the static archive (libl.a) isn't present than this will fail unless you swith to dynamic linking ( use --enable-dynamic-linking ) BTW if you're compiling from source then why do you use an old version?
