Nagios Support Forum

I have had two problems building both 3.0rc2 and 3.0rc3. Both problems
seem to be related to glib libraries and include files. They may be
caused by our non-standard systems (redhat enterprise 4, but using
openpkg packages to replace many standard redhat packages. Not
something I have control over.)

First, at configure.in line 525, there are the following lines:

GLIB_LIBS=`pkg-config --libs glib-2.0`
AC_SUBST(GLIB_LIBS)
if test x$GLIB_LIBS != x; then


If pkg-config returns more than one entry, the test fails. Enclosing it
in quotes as follows will fix it:


if test "x$GLIB_LIBS" != x; then


I apologize if there is a better way to fix it.

The other problem is probably related, but I don't really understand how
to fix it. On our non-standard systems, running:

pkg-config --cflags glib-2.0

Returns "-I/usr/local/include/glib2 -I/usr/local/lib/glib2/include".
Unfortunately, we need to also have "-I/usr/local/include" for other
things like libGD. Even if I run:

configure --includedir=/usr/local/include

The -I/usr/local/include does not get passed to cgi/Makefile. As a
result, building the cgi programs fails. It kind of seems like using
--includedir should cause it to be passed to various Makefiles?

Please let me know if I can explain these problems better.
