This is my first thread, I really didn't know where to put this question. It is related to programming, so I figure it should be here. When I try to install the libdcrypt-0.3 I get an error at the end. I am going to post my installation log. Maybe someone can help me.

Please any help is very appreciated.

Dear hupdy:

No, I doubt this is really the right forum for this question. That said, it is similar to issues with PERL CPAN installs.

Did you use:

./ <---note that with this script it should probably read:

./configure --with-dmalloc

gmake
gtest

...etc...

...or did you skip the "gtest" step? What did the 'test' step while installing this script have to say? Also, what is the status of the dmalloc library on the machine you are installing on? Is it properly installed?

Apologies if this is all 'way to simple but you can test for dmalloc like this:

% ls /lib/libdmalloc* /usr/lib/libdmalloc* /usr/share/lib/libdmalloc* /usr/local/lib/libdmalloc* /usr/local/share/lib/libdmalloc*

I was just looking at unanswered questions here on the forum and I am not an expert on this script/library. Just some suggestions for where to look...

Best,

Pyrrhic

Well I found my answer. The problem with my installation was that I was using the current version of GCC-4.x where the files requires GCC-3.4.x. So I installed the Compat-34 and after it installed I typed export CC=gcc34 in the terminal, then I compiled it and it worked. Thanks for the help.
