RE: [Axiom-developer] Problem compiling Axiom on Ferora Core 3...

[Page, Bill]

Ammar Hakim,

This problem has been discussed on the Axiom developer email list.

The short answer is to modify the lsp/Makefile.pamphlet to
change the configuration options as follows:

 configure with --disable-statsysbfd --enable-locbfd

This solution solves problems of several different kinds on
some of the less common linux systems. Let us know if you
need more detailed help to do this.
