Can't configure Perl in LFS-SVN (Chapter 5.27). -lgdbm not found
Hi,
I'm repeatedly running into this Perl configure error- Code:
/mnt/lfs/tools/bin/../lib/gcc/i686-pc-linux-gnu/4.4.1/../../../../i686-pc-linux-gnu/bin/ld: cannot find -lgdbm |

I know, but the current stable builds onexactly the same packages as used by the current devel version. In fact LFS-6.5 went stable on the 19th of this month. I don't think this is any reason for the configure to fail.

My bad. Didn't pay close enough attention to the release dates. But I decided to go for the stable release an still get the same error, although the build process is exactly the same for the devel version. Dunno what I'm doing wrong. I tried using -Dnoextensions flag, but Perl seems to ignore it (or maybe it isn't a valid option). Also, is gdbm a critical dependency for installing Perl? I thought it just gave a warning and continued, if it didn't find a library, instead of exiting with a fatal error. Is there something else I could try? Please advise.

Here is the relevant text from the INSTALL file in the Perl source: Code:

Solved!! Thanks so much David1357. Using -Donlyextensions worked for me.
