Not really. It depends on the C library installation on your system. It seems to me SuSE's C library has crypt routines built-in and does not need the separate crypt library. Redhat does need it, if I remember correctly. At least, here it compiles without any additional {$linklib crypt} statement

Since it doesn't hurt, I added the {$LINKLIB crypt} statement to the ibase60 unit.

I get the same error with interbase ver. 6.0 .
I have edited lazarus.pp in this way:
<snip>
program Lazarus;

{$mode objfpc}{$H+}
{$linklib crypt}
{$I ide.inc}
<snip>
now you can compile with -dInterbase but I think this is not clean...
someone else should know how to implement the directive
{$linklib crypt}

Hi all,

I compiled lazarus with: make clean all OPT="-dNoGdkPixBufLib -dInterbase" that produce the following error msg:
Linking ./lazarus
/usr/lib/libgds.so: undefined reference to `crypt' lazarus.pp(307) Error: Error while linking
Closing script ./ppas.sh
make[1]: *** [lazarus] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/blgoeris/src/lazarus' make: *** [ide] Error 2
I have firebird ver. 1.0.2-ss-io64(linux) installed. Which version runs with lazarus?

thx
Siggi

Hi all,

Slightly off topic, can I use latest firebird for Linux. I tried last weekend but it spits out lots of errors.

Add '-k-lcrypt' without the ' to the options.

If crypt is always needed for interbase, I can add {$linklib crypt} to idecomp.pp. Is this the case?
