First, I suggest when troubleshooting, you should:
Use the full path name to file, not relative path name. This will insure there are no strange, unseen PATH issues. For example:
I would change this to:
Second, you should confirm that these objects are in the PATH, exactly, and that you have read / access permission for them.
Sometimes, even the best sys admins install code under one userid, then they work as another userid, and they do not have permissions to access the file. Happens all the time (at least to me, LOL).
This is generally the first two steps I always take (back to basics, before back to the future).
Insure your PATH(s) are correct and objects / symbols are in the PATH(s), correctly.
Check file and directly permissions for the userid you are using to build.
UNIX and Linux are funny things, they generally do what they are told to do and report back the "facts" as they find them. In your case, gcc cannot find required symbols and objects. This is generally because they cannot find them, i.e. not in the search PATH or the file/directory permissions are "not as required".
Please post back and let me know if you are certain your PATHs are correct and why, using the FULL PATH names to files and directories in your command line for gcc.
Since we are not "standing behind you, watching you type", we cannot "see" what directory you are in, so to be sure, it is always best to use FULL PATH names when troubleshooting a problem like this.

I need to look for a config file (ldap.conf) and pick the latest modified file.
`locate` tells me there are many ldap.conf's, some in /etc, /usr, /home, etc.
Is there some way I can sort them by last modified time via bash?
I was thinking maybe I could pipe the output of `locate` to `ls... (4 Replies)

When looking for wherever a program or a filename appears in the system, a short scrip is "findinner" which another script calls with a long parameter list consisting of path names ending with ".sh" or ".menu". "findinner" looks like this:
