I can not get the configure program to run successfully. The system is AIX 4.3.2 with gcc version 2.7.2.2. Any suggestions would be appreciated. I am not knowledgeable about c compilers. I have found several references the talk about the problem but no clear cut solutions. ****Here is what /usr/lib/libc.a look like ---- lrwxrwxrwx 1 bin bin 19 May 15 1999 /usr/lib/libc.a -> /usr/ccs/lib/libc.a ****ls -l /usr/ccs/lib/libc.a -r-xr-xr-x 2 bin bin 5940562 Nov 27 22:57 /usr/ccs/lib/libc.a ****Here is the config.log more config.log This file contains any messages produced by compilers while running configure, to aid debugging if configure makes a mistake. configure:565: checking for gcc2 configure:595: checking for gcc configure:672: checking whether the C compiler (gcc ) works configure:686: gcc -o conftest conftest.c 1>&5 collect2: /usr/lib/libc.a: not an import library configure: failed program was: #line 682 "configure" #include "confdefs.h" main(){return(0);} Thank you, Danielle C.
