Neal:

Well, I did that and then got a failure on "unsigned long int".  So I
went back to the original script.

Llooking back through the htdig archives, I saw a note from Kenneth
saying that the issue might be in libz.so...  Checking, I found that I
had two versions:  One in /usr/lib provided by Sun in packages SUNWzlib
and SUNWzlibx.  I also had one in /usr/local/lib...  I put
/usr/local/lib before /usr/lib in LD_LIBRARY_PATH and the configure
completed.  The one in /usr/local/lib is the one from GNU and was
either downloaded from http://sunfreeware.com or was compiled on my
machine.  (The Sun and GNU are both the same version - V1.1.3...)

I'm now doing a compile to see if it completes.  If so, then I'll did
further to see where binaries, scripts, et al need to be placed and
reconfigure.

Thanks for your assistance.  (I send this note so that others might see
and benefit.)

Gregory Hicks

I am perfectly capable of learning from my mistakes.  I will surely
learn a great deal today.
