[Orca-users] Compile error with orca

[leo.mccoy at kbm1.com]

I've seen this problem with orca-0.27.  It comes from the rdd configure
script (rrdtool-1.0.40).  

Certain versions of perl return the "-B/usr/ccs/bin" value when executing
this line in the configure script.  When I run:

# perl -e 'use Config; exit 0 if -x $Config{cc}; map {if (-x
"$_/$Config{cc}"){exit 0}} split /:/, $ENV{PATH};print $Config{cc}'

I get:

gcc -B/usr/ccs/bin/

as a response and an zero return code.

Knowing that my gcc and perl installs were fine, I commented out the two
"PROBLEMCC=" lines in the configure script and everything worked fine from
there.

I didn't have this problem with the 402 snapshot that included
rrdtool-1.0.49.

Hope that helps.

It looks like the compiler your perl was compiled with, which I'm 
guessing is gcc since there is a -B flag, isn't on your system.  Is this 
the case?

You may have to get a Perl from ActiveState or from sunfreeware.com.
