Re: Build v8.0.36 on RHEL 9 Fails With Unresolved xdr_ Symbols

[William Jastrow]

First, MANY thanks to @Terje Rosten.

I followed the guidance, installed these libraries (except as noted):

libtirpc-devel <-- already installed
rpcgen <-- already installed
bison
elfutils
libaio-devel
libcurl-devel
cyrus-sasl-devel
openldap-devel

After removing the build directory, establishing, executing cmake, then make, the build followed a "longer" path, however, it ultimately encountered the same set of errors:

The difference in execution leads me to suspect "other" libraries that may be required, however, I'm not sure what they might be.

Thanks in advance for reading and offering your insight.
