Re: [Swarm-Support] compile error

[Paul Johnson]

Ah! Good. Are you trying to build Swarm from the SRPM with the rebuild 
command?   Or have you taken the srpm file and tried to do it manually.

If you are trying the "rebuild" with the rpmbuild program, I believe the 
problem you run into here is a libtool problem.  We have discussed that 
before. The problem is in the fact that libtool is looking in 
/usr/lib/swarm for libraries that you have not yet installed. I think 
this problem will be fixed someday, but package builders everywhere have 
been screaming about it a while. the fix is to do a "make" and "make 
install" in the BUILD directory, so that the files actually get dropped 
into /usr/lib/swarm, and then try the rpm build again, and it will find 
what it needs.

It does not look to me like you have tried to rebuild the srpm, however. 
 It looks to me like you are trying a manual build, but you ahve not 
followed any of the recommended practices for building Swarm.  I hate to 
sound like a broken record, but

1. gcc-3.2 does not work
and
2. I can help you do this if you tell us exactly what tools you have 
(gcc, libtool) and if you have root access. The SPEC file distributed 
with my SRPM should show you how to write the configure statement and 
also it is important not to build swarm in the source directory, but in 
a separate place (the SPEC uses =with-hdf as the place).  Please check 
the SwarmFAQ for information about how to write the configure statement.
