Hello All I am trying to compile the latest "bind" on a slink system.
(It is a production system that I don't wish to upgrade right now, and I am also not happy running the old vulnerable version ...) The compilation bombs out with the following message: make[3]: Entering directory `/home/ian/dev/bind/bind- 8.2.3/src/bin/addr' gcc -D_GNU_SOURCE -I../../port/linux/include -I../../include -O -g -c addr.c gcc -D_GNU_SOURCE -O -g -o addr addr.o \ ../../lib/libbind.a -lfl ld: cannot open -lfl: No such file or directory make[3]: *** [addr] Error 1 make[3]: Leaving directory `/home/ian/dev/bind/bind- 8.2.3/src/bin/addr' make[2]: *** [addr] Error 1 make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/ian/dev/bind/bind-8.2.3/src/bin' make[1]: *** [all] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/ian/dev/bind/bind-8.2.3/src' make: *** [build-stamp] Error 2 I assume it is looking for some library that I do not have, or it does not like slink's libc, or gcc. However I don't know too much about this. Does anybody have any suggestions as to what is causing this. Or alternatively, does anybody know of a (reputable) slink version, *.deb binary file that I can download ? (I am also looking for the latest proftpd and openssh, compiled for slink).
