I'm trying to build x5250 version 0.5.2-pre3, which I downloaded from James' site yesterday. When I run ./configure it fails with the following error: configure: error: ** Unable to find 5250 libraries! At one point, I had contributed code to this project that used the pkg-config tool to find lib5250. However, this code appears to have been removed from the project, and now lib5250 can't be found. How do I tell it where to look for lib5250?
midrange.com
configure.ac now uses this code:
AC_CHECK_LIB(5250, tn5250_terminal_init, TN5250_LIB=-l5250)
if test "$ac_cv_lib_5250_tn5250_terminal_init" != "yes"
then
AC_MSG_ERROR([** Unable to find 5250 libraries!])
fi
which simply checks for the tn5250_terminal_init() function in the library
lib5250.so as found by ld. If the linker can't find lib5250 you may need
to either edit /etc/ld.so.conf or set LD_LIBRARY_PATH to point to the
location where you installed lib5250. configure no longer uses pkg-config
to find lib5250 and tn5250 does not produce a pkg-config package.
