Hello,

I'm having some problem in installing Webalizer on our Solaris 9
(sparc)

I installed all the needed packages using pkgadd but I couldn't find a
binary fo webalizer higher then solaris 8,
so I downloaded the source code and I tried...
but I get the following error
can anyone help?

Why does everybody use libiconv?

Well now you will need:
setenv LDFLAGS '-L/usr/local/lib -R/usr/local/lib -liconv'
(or the equivalent syntax in a better shell)
then run "make distclean" (if it accepts to run) and rerun configure.

But the point here is that your libgd was badly linked.

Thank you for your answer... I'm still need some help

>Why does everybody use libiconv?
because I don't understand half of the command I type... 
they usually do he job...

>Well now you will need:

dse01:/software/webalizer-2.01-10 root# setenv LDFLAGS
'-L/usr/local/lib -R /usr/local/lib -liconv'
bash: setenv: command not found

:-(((((

well at least now I understand I little bit more
thanks a lot

Ok, then you are using one of the better shells I was mentionning. Try:

LDFLAGS='-L/usr/local/lib -R/usr/local/lib -liconv'
export LDFLAGS

instead of the setenv line. You can then follow the rest of what I was
saying in my previous post.

It would actually be best if you reinstalled libgd using the same LDFLAGS
technique, or you will need to do this for every new library or program
that uses libgd.

Did the Solaris 8 version not work?  It should have.  Solaris
guarantees upward compatibility.

That's why I think that Solaris should include a dummy version
of libiconv.  Otherwise, people will persist in installing a
software package that only duplicates what's already there.
