[Pdns-users] Compiling 3.0 on OpenBSD

[Rickard Dahlstrand]

Hi Peter and others,

Installing a new server and with all the OpenBSD-patches I thought I give an unpatched version a try. After trying:

./configure CXXFLAGS=-pthread --with-modules='gmysql pipe'
cd modules ; make ; cd ..
cd pdns/ext/polarssl; make; cd ../../..

I get this:

misc.o(.text+0x1877): In function `makeHexDump(std::basic_string<char, std::char_traits<char>, std::allocator<char> > const&)':

Any idea what to try out?

Rickard.
