Description Brian Cameron 2009-01-20 20:55:49 UTC 
Several gst-plugins-base plugins fail to build on Solaris due to missing
-lsocket, and -lnsl libraries on the link line.  

This patch fixes GStreamer so it builds.  Not sure if this patch needs
additional work to go upstream.

This patch is not correct in this form. We need to add some configure checks to add those libraries.

updated patch


This updated patch fixes configure to check for libsocket and libnsl, so the libraries get added to LIBS if present on the system.  This seems cleaner and hopefully can go upstream.

    Fix linking on Solaris. Fixes bug #568482.
    
    Check for nsl and socket libraries and add them to
    LIBS if they're found. They're needed for socket()
    and gethostbyname() on Solaris.
