Problem on installing WvStreams-4.0.1

Hi folks,

BLFS 6.1
FC3 Host

http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs...wvstreams.html
Problem on installing WvStreams-4.0.1 on chroot environment
md5sums of its tarball matched.
OpenSSL-0.9.7g installed without problem/complaint

@localhost.localdomain : /root@localhost:/sources/wvstreams-4.0.1# ./configure --prefix=/usr \
> --sysconfdir=/etc --localstatedir=/var &&
> make

Code:

    
.......
streams/wvpam.cc: In member function `bool WvPam::authenticate(const WvFastString&, const WvFastString&, const WvFastString&)':
streams/wvpam.cc:71: error: `fail' undeclared (first use this function)
streams/wvpam.cc:71: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once for each function it appears in.)
make: *** [streams/wvpam.o] Error 1

I tried 3 times, including re-download its patch file. But problem still reoccured.

Please advise. TIA

Hmm, not quite sure what's wrong. No problems building here. Do you have PAM installed?

No. Is it "Linux-PAM-0.80" same as PAM. The former is optional.

google search found following URL

Code:

.......
Do you have a pam-dev package installed on your system?  Change line
71 from fail to false.  Or apply the untested patch below.

I don't have PAM installed. I already have the patch download from BLFS site.

Yes, Linux-PAM is the same as PAM. I was figuring it as some sort of dependency on PAM. Just as a note, OpenOffice (well, 2.0 alpha/beta anyways) requires PAM, so you may want to install it sooner or later anyways.

Hi kjordan,

Linux-PAM already installed and also WvStreams-4.0.1. To install BLFS on chroot environment is not advisable. I encountered some problems on BLFS installation. Once I have the kernel recompiled and Broadband connected I'll continue on LFS 6.1 instead.
