Hi, On RedHat ES4, AMD64 architecture, the 64 bit libraries are in /usr/lib64, not /usr/lib. For many of the options (especially mysql and ldap which I'm trying to enable), I'm ending up creating symlinks in /usr/lib in order for configure to complete. An especially frustrating problem is ldap. If I say "--with-ldap", it can't find the ldap libraries. If I say "--with-ldap=/usr/lib64", it can't find ldap.h. The configure shell script only seems to know about /usr/lib, even when I add a "libdir=/usr/lib64" parameter (and I don't think that that's what the parameter is for). How can I rebuild the configure script to understand that the base directory for system libs is /usr/lib64. Thanks, Rob -- Rob Tanner UNIX Services Manager Linfield College, McMinnville OR
