That's why god invented -static and Bruce. 8-) OK - the real issue - the perl build tries quite hard to find libraries to link against - static or dynamic[1]. At the moment It is discovering the a.ut libraries and puking on them. I have override mechanism to tell it where to find the ELF libraries. What macro/variable/whatever can I use in that override that contains the "right" libraries for linking "now"? [1] at the final stage, this must be dynamic. Right now - I don't care I just want ELF, not a.out.
