Summary: Building BRLCAD on Solaris 10

Initial Comment:
When building BRLCAD the makefiles are not correct or are not being used properly.  Every place in the makefile where there is a libxxx.la file it is not read or interperted as libxxx.a or libxxx.so.  So when it makes it does not find any of the libraries.  What do I do the get it to work?  
I manualy type out the command to compile each executable including the correct path and library but that would take forever.
Please help.

Daniel,

I've compiled recently on Solaris, my suspicion is that there's some stale
GNU build system logic in the way.  Run "make distclean" and start over
with "./autogen.sh" so that even the templates are regenerated.  See if
that helps.

If that still fails, please attach a complete build log that shows the
output from this:

./autogen.sh
./configure --enable-all --without-opengl
make
sudo make install
/usr/brlcad/bin/benchmark

Cheers!
Sean

Also we got to the burst directory compile and it can not find clr_Echo
and some other
symbols and will not compile.  We can not find this code anywhere.  Why
does the makefile
not find this?
