I know my way around IT, but I come from the Netware/MS world. I’m a newbie when it comes to Linux (and certainly Asterisk), but am diving right in, using Asterisk as the reason to brush up on my Linux knowledge.
I am attempting to compile Asterisk 1.0.9 on Open Suse 10.0. I already figured out that the default Suse install doesn’t include gcc or the kernal source when I attempted to compile the zaptel portion. Got that taken care of, but now trying to run make on the Asterisk source bombs with the following message:
gcc -g -o asterisk -Wl,-E io.o sched.o logger.o frame.o loader.o config.o channel.o translate.o file.o say.o pbx.o cli.o md5.o term.o ulaw.o alaw.o callerid.o fskmodem.o image.o app.o cdr.o tdd.o acl.o rtp.o manager.o asterisk.o ast_expr.o dsp.o chanvars.o indications.o autoservice.o db.o privacy.o astmm.o enum.o srv.o dns.o aescrypt.o aestab.o aeskey.o utils.o editline/libedit.a db1-ast/libdb1.a stdtime/libtime.a -ldl -lpthread -lncurses -lm -lresolv -lssl

collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make: *** [asterisk] Error 1I’m also getting a considerable amount of warnings, should I be worried about them?
