I used the solutions posted therein to solve said problems. This page lists a linux specific makefile change for linking the libpsqlodbc.so interface symbolically. I found that this similar redefinition of LDFLAGS_SL under "ifeq ($(PORTNAME), freebsd)" worked for me: LDFLAGS_SL := -shared -Bsymbolic -lc -lm -soname $(shlib) I did not have to modify the makefile in any other way. Good luck, and a big thank you to Mr. O'Brien for providing this information! - Woody To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
