Re: ORBit Compile on Solaris

[Charles Gagnon <charlesg unixrealm com>]

I did re-configure. That was a freshly downloaded tar ball. Maybe the problem
is Solaris systems have:

  /usr/lib/libresolv.*

Installed with the OS. When I installed a more recent bind, I installed:

  /usr/local/lib/libbind.*

Don't know if that's confusing Configure.
