• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

Perls tests the compiler during build and adds the lib there. Output:

Checking your choice of C compiler and flags for coherency...
I've tried to compile and run the following simple program:

#include <stdio.h>
int main() { printf("Ok\n"); return(0); }

I used the command:

        armeb-softfloat-linux-gnu-gcc -o try -O2 -I/root/nslu2/usr/include -DOVR_DBL_DIG=14 try.c -lnsl -lgdbm -ldb -ldl -lm -lcrypt -lutil -lc
         ./try

/usr/libexec/gcc/armeb-softfloat-linux-gnu/ld: cannot find -lgdbm

feels like a duplicate of bug #157774 to me, which IMO is already fixed (see other bug)

Looks ok here, marking as FIXED
