installing problem on SUN-sparc2

% man dlsym

DLOPEN(3X) MISCELLANEOUS LIBRARY FUNCTIONS DLOPEN(3X)

NAME
     dlopen, dlsym, dlerror, dlclose - simple programmatic inter-

*> face to the dynamic linker (problemmattic?)

     These functions are obtained by specifying -ldl as an option
     to ld(1).

Peter,

I've noticed this with compilation of other software and have never seen
this problem before Sun OS 4.1.1, but the work around is to edit the
Gmakefile in the directory where it bombed and add the -ldl in the
appropriate spot. If you find this problem with other directories,
then you may want to edit src/CMD/head/*

Can someone check the bug list for Sun OS 4.1.1 and see if this is
on there?

Hello

excuse me with bothering with this problem - maybe it can be a simple
one.

I am trying to instal GRASs on SUN sparc2 with mono monitor.
I did : 1. setup program
           2. edited the list of config.
           3. started the GISGEN - after aprx . 50 min it came
              with a problem - I try to retype it
              (my Sun is not in network yet )
         it was : at
        ###########################################
         make -f OBJ/make.rules

         cc -s OBJ/splitfont.c OBJ/fontmap.o -o splitfont

         ld: Undefined symbols
             _dlopen
             _dlclose
             _dlsym
          Error code 2
error at target splitfont
         failure at STEP: fonts/for_grass
        ###################################

      Any kind of help would be nice - I admit I am begginer at
Sun and Unix. Thank you very much in advance

please mail directly to KUKO@CSPUNI12.bitnet
