[Perfparse-users] Compiling PP 0.105.5 on Fedora Core 3

[Nick S. <ni...@sm...>]

Hello!

After a bit of problem with a disk, I took the opportunity to upgrade to 
FC3, upgrade MySQL, recompiling Nagios (OK) and recompile PP.

However, I have some trouble - perhaps someone has encountered this? 
(configure output and make output attached).

Configure seems to progress normally. In make, I get a load of warnings 
like:

make[2]: Entering directory `/opt/perfparse-0.105.5/libpp_common'

then mv -f ".deps/libpp_common_la-config_file.Tpo"

".deps/libpp_common_la-config_file.Tpo"; exit 1; fi

Which I have ignored for the time being. However, later on it comes to a 
halt at:

collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

Now, I got past by linking libXpm.so to libXpm.so.4.11 in 
/usr/X11R6/lib, but then it halted at libX11, and so on - getting 
confused at the versioned so libraries.

Is this a function of the compiler, loader, Makefile or what? Any ideas?

Thanks
