[syslog-ng] Syslog-ng error

[Rakesh Pillai]

Yes you are correct, the actual error message here seems to be some lines 
below the one that I porvided earlier. Below is the error message that 
gets generated.

/usr/lib/gcc/s390x-redhat-linux/4.1.2/../../../../lib64/libwrap.a(hosts_access.o): 
In function `host_match':
(.text+0xc62): undefined reference to `yp_get_default_domain'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make[2]: *** [syslog-ng] Error 1
make[2]: Leaving directory `/tmp/TEST/WORK/syslog-ng-2.1.3/src'
make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/tmp/TEST/WORK/syslog-ng-2.1.3'
make: *** [all] Error 2

Any suggestions to get around with the above error?

Regards,
Rakesh

Hi,

These aren't errors, only warnings. If your compilation failed, the
errors were different lines, probably under these block.

These are linker warnings, because some glibc calls provided by
plugins of glibc's NSS[1] framework.

Like all the user and group information handling plugins, where there
are different plugins for all the different database backends possible.
(like oldschool /etc/(passwd|group|shadow), NIS, NIS+) or network adress
lookup (DNS or Hesiod).

As the warning says, the statically linked binaries will work reliably
only on machines which have the same version of glibc installed, as
your builder machine.
