Hi everybody,
I just installed ngircd and it really runs fine. Just as I like it :-) But I ran into some trouble, when I tried to activate IDENT. My system is a FreeBSD 4.10. If I try to install from the port or from source, I get the following error (right now from port):
$ make -DWITH_IDENT install clean
[..snipp..]
checking for ident_id in -lident... no checking for ident_id... no configure: error: Can't enable IDENT support! ===> Script "configure" failed unexpectedly.
Any ideas, why this happens? I already googled, but with no success.
Thank you.
Ciao, -Martin.
Hi Martin!
checking for ident_id in -lident... no checking for ident_id... no configure: error: Can't enable IDENT support!
The configure script is checking for libident which is required by ngIRCd for IDENT support, but can't find it.
Most likely you have to install libident first.

well, I already did that. I've installed security/libident (port), but the result is the same. The configure script breaks up with the same error mesasage :-/

Okay, I'm not that familiar with the ports system of FreeBSD: where became libident installed? Is this a "standard library search path" of the linker?
And could you have a look into config.log? There you should find the error message of the compiler/linker.

I also tried this. I deinstalled the libident-port, download libident from source and installed it. Same error :-/

Hmm ... which part? :) These are a few lines, I've found ...
configure:7807: checking for ident_id in -lident /usr/libexec/elf/ld: cannot find -lident
configure:7883: checking for ident_id /tmp/ccRT7bWS.o(.text+0x9): undefined reference to `ident_id' /tmp/ccRT7bWS.o(.data+0x0): undefined reference to `ident_id'
ac_cv_func_ident_id=no ac_cv_lib_ident_ident_id=no
Ciao, -Martin.
