cd lib

cd ..
cd modules
gmake LIBS="-L%{_libdir} -lglib-2.0 -levtlog ../../lib/libsyslog-ng.la"
cd ..
gmake

how to proceed here?

When does the error shows up ? During configure ? 

What is the output of " pkg-config --libs glib-2.0 "   ? 

Originally posted by: ctremel

yes its an configure error...

pkg-config --libs glib-2.0
-L/opt/freeware/lib -lglib-2.0 -lintl

strangely enough there is just one header file and no archives/shared objects in this directory. no glue if this correct.

packagebuilder@aixbuildhostng: /home/packagebuilder # ls /opt/freeware/lib/glib-2.0/

Looks like if you want to use POSIX threads support by having -pthread option, then you need to have /lib/mcrt0.o file present.

# ls -l /lib/mcrt0.o
lrwxrwxrwx 1 bin bin 20 Apr  4  2017 /lib/mcrt0.o -> /usr/ccs/lib/mcrt0.o

# ls -l /usr/ccs/lib/mcrt0.o
-r--r--r-- 1 bin bin 12176 Mar 17  2016 /usr/ccs/lib/mcrt0.o

# lslpp -w /usr/ccs/lib/mcrt0.o

Thanks,

What is the package you are trying to compile ? 

To avoid these kind of problems, it's always better to use GCC instead of XLC.

i tried to build a syslog-ng package. i the end i gave up on it, as its full of linux specific calls/functions and migrated our syslog-ng instance over to linux. its just not worth the effort.
