GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 104707
configure-file woes ..... gives gnome-session trouble
Last modified: 2006-04-18 13:43:24 UTC
The configure script of libgnomeui doesn't figure out that on a Solaris box, LDFLAGS must contain "-lsocket -lnsl" when linking with libSM & libICE, otherwise session management won't be built into this lib. And when session management isn't built in here, gnome-session won't be built later on :-----( Cheers!
Is this problem still there with 2.4.x?
It seems to be the case, judging from bug 128142
And it's still the same for 2.5.2 .....
SunOS brusen 5.9 Generic_112234-11 i86pc i386 i86pc On the space-machine, I used the standard Sun X-libs in /usr/openwin, but on my PC-machine at home, I currently run XFree-4.3.0 ... Both libSM and libICE use sockets, and socket-stuff on Solaris are found in libnsl and libsocket .....
He he, it should be *sparc*, space :)
Fixed according to the gnome-session bugreport.
