samba - Apr 2011 - FAM linking error on Irix

Hi all,

I am compiling Samba 3.5.8 on Irix 6.5.28 using gcc 3.4.6 .

Towards the end the linking phase stops with the following error:

[...]

gmake: *** [bin/smbd] Error 1

Adding  -lfam  to LDFLAGS changes nothing.

If I  configure  with  --disable-fam , the compilation works fine.

But I'd rather like to build it with FAM support. Even more as Irix 
comes with FAM anyhow.

Please let me know if I can deliver any additional information for 
diagnosis. ...Or if the  samba-technical  list would be more suitable 
for questions like this?

Regards,
Frank Morawietz

Google leads me to

Maybe some table is just overflowing and you need to take a
look at specific linker options. I don't have access to that
build environment right now so I can't really tell. But
maybe the hint to play with -G<n> as a linker argument helps
you.

Sorry,

Volker
