Unhappy C compiler


I have 5 machines working in Debian. I need to install another one to program in Borland C. When I install the new version of Debian I try to compile my old programs and those programs donīt compile because the compiler couldnīt find the libreries (libsis.a)

You need to install libsis.a.

I'm not sure what libsis is, it certainly isn't a standard Debian package. it could be a “logic synthesis system” from UC Berkeley (http://embedded.eecs.berkeley.edu/Alumni/pchong/sis/). This has probably been removed due to a lack of support, since it's authors don't support it anymore. But you should be able to install it from the tarball at that link.

Hope that helps,

An other problem is that the Compiler doesn't find the "stdio.h".
