Re: libmilter and libpthread problem building on Redhat ES

2007-01-25 by jcleone2

Thanks a lots for all the help you gave to me since my first post. 
In spite of these the problem is remained.
May be i have forgotten something.

In fact my project is too use milter greylist with sendmail-8.12.10.

1. First i have downloaded milter-greylist-3.0
There are some prerequisites to install milter-greylist :

Build dependencies:                                           
- flex (AT&T lex cannot build milter-greylist sources)        
- yacc or bison                                               
- libmilter (comes with Sendmail)                             
- Any POSIX threads library (Provided by libc on some systems)

Flex, bison are already installed.
I hope that it’s the same for the POSIX threads library because there
is a file called libpthread.a on my system, il don’t knox if it’s
sufficient.

It seems that only the libmilter is missing.

2. So I have downloaded the sendmail-8.12 .10-1.src package ant
install it.
With this package there are the sources of libmilter. 
I run the Build script and libmilter.a was generated.

3. Now i run the configure script of milter-greylist again and obtain
the errors messages that i mentioned in the first post.

Is there something missing in this install procedure ?
Did i forget something ?

Thanks by advance.

Regards.

Move to quarantaine

This moves the raw source file on disk only. The archive index is not changed automatically, so you still need to run a manual refresh afterward.
