RE: compress/uncompress

["Botwick, Jason (Genworth, Contractor)" <Jason.Botwick () genworth com>]

I found that I had to change the following in snort-dist/src/Makefile:

LIBS = -lz -lpcre -lpcap -lm -lnsl  -lmysqlclient

to

LIBS = -lpcre -lpcap -lm -lnsl  -lmysqlclient -lz

Read up on linkers if you want to understand why, but the order in which you
specify libraries is important.

Hi,

I have read the FAQ and it did say to add the 'lz' to the
LIBS statement in the Makefile.   I even did it in the
LDFLAGS during the configure.  I am compiling Snort 2.2.0
against MySQL 4.0.21.

I still get :
gcc  -O0 -DDEBUG -g  -L/usr/local/lib -lpcre -L/usr/local/mysql/lib

collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make[3]: *** [snort] Error 1
make[3]: Leaving directory `/root/curinsts/snort-2.2.0/src'


As you can see, I do have the 'lz' in the gcc line.

Is there something else that I'm missing?

Any help appreciated.
