Hi.

When Compiling Caudium 1.2.8 under FreeBSD 4.8 make also attempted - and failed - to compile Pike. The compile fails with the following error message: [...] /sbin/ldconfig -m /usr/local/lib ===> Registering installation for gdbm-1.8.3 ===> Returning to build of pike72cvs-7.2.380_1 Error: shared library "gdbm.2" does not exist *** Error code 1

I'm wondering what I can do in order to successfully complete the compile.

A more complete excerpt of the compilation log follows below (parts I skipped are indicated using [...]):

If you need UNIX dbm/ndbm compatibility functions, use "make WITH_COMPAT=yes"

If you ever happen to want to link against installed libraries in a given directory, LIBDIR, you must either use libtool, and specify the full pathname of the library, or use `-LLIBDIR' flag during linking and do at least one of the following: - add LIBDIR to the `LD_LIBRARY_PATH' environment variable during execution - add LIBDIR to the `LD_RUN_PATH' environment variable during linking - use the `-Wl,--rpath -Wl,LIBDIR' linker flag

Thanks for any help.
