FreeBSD doesn't have libdl so Amanda 3.4.3 and 3.4.4 won't build

FreeBSD doesn't have libdl so Amanda 3.4.3 and 3.4.4 won't build.

The Makefile.in in the device-src directory unconditionally tries to include -ldl. This causes FreeBSD to fail during the build.

The problem area in device-src/Makefile.in is about line 1788.

I have created a local patch to circumvent this problem and both 3.4.3 and 3.4.4 seem okay, otherwise.

Thanks.

Can you try the attached patch

Jean-Louis,

Thanks for the quick reply.

The patch appears to apply correctly. configure appear to run correctly.

The attachment shows an error which occurs during gmake.

I have time and computers to do any testing necessary.

Thanks.

David Boyd.

Some tools are missing to build amanda, (not the same version as I have).
You can try to do:./autogen
before the ./configure

You can also try to download amanda-3.4.5.tar.gz, the patch is included in it.

Jean-Louis,

I couldn't get ./autogen to work ... same complaint about aclocal.

I downloaded 3.4.5 and it configured and build just peachy.

I am testing now, but everything looks good.

Thank you.

David Boyd.

Is there another solution? The previous stated doesn’t work for me.
