Porting to other linux
Posted: Thu Jun 15, 2006 07:17 PM

Hello All,

I have been working with a customer who has their own version of linux and I have been trying to get them a hello world program. I am running redhat and the programs compile and run great. When our customer runs the program he is getting a message that the libgpm.so.1 is missing.

Is it possible to link this lib in to the distributed program to avoid problems like this?

Thanks

Dave,

Yes, you may link the libs to produce a self contained application. Please review FiveLinux samples\build.sh bash file.

Anyhow, that is a very typicall Linux issue: to install packages. Your customer should install the gpm package for its linux distribution.

regards, saludos
