[Coldstuff] having trouble getting genesis to compile

[Ira]

I've been fiddling with this for a while here, so I'm going to paste in 
a lot of stuff...  sorry about that.

when I try to compile genesis, I get a bunch of "undefined reference" 
errors, followed by ld returning a 1 exit status and the whole thing 
breaks.  I'll paste in the exact text at the end of the email.

I looked for anything related to compile problems with Mandrake Linux 
(which is what I'm running on that machine) and found a message in the 
Coldstuff archives talking about gdbm.h being in the wrong place on 
Mandrake 8.1...  I'm running 8.2.  so, since it does look like a dbm 
related problem I started looking for gdbm.h, as suggested in the 
message:
http://web.cold.org/pipermail/cold-coldstuff/2002-February/000191.html

gdbm.h doesn't exist on my system, so I looked on rpmfind for gdbm, and 
I couldn't find a package that provided that particular file.  however, 
I do seem to have the mandrake gdbm package installed:
-----
$ locate gdbm
...
/usr/lib/libgdbm.so.2
/usr/lib/libgdbm.so.2.0.0
/usr/lib/rep/0.15.2/i586-mandrake-linux-gnu/gdbm.la
/usr/lib/rep/0.15.2/i586-mandrake-linux-gnu/rep/io/db/gdbm.la
/usr/lib/rep/0.15.2/i586-mandrake-linux-gnu/rep/io/db/gdbm.so
/usr/lib/rep/0.15.2/i586-mandrake-linux-gnu/gdbm.so
-----

since the first two files there are all that the gdbm package on rpmfind 
provides, I'm not sure what to do to make the whole thing work.  I can't 
find gdbm.h on rpmfind.net at all.

there _is_ an ndbm.h:
-----
$ locate ndbm
/usr/include/db1/ndbm.h
-----

it _seems_ like the configure script is finding ndbm.h...

so, I'm lost.

sorry for such a verbose message, but I wanted to exhaust possibilities 
of fixing it myself before asking the list.

thanks very much!


Love,
Ira
