[eresi-dev] ERESI-static get linking error [Was: eresi doesn't compile]

[jv at ens dot fr]

- ERESI compiles very well on ubuntu. The problem you have is
not related to ERESI but to your system which is badly configured.

- The linking errors for --enable-static however are confirmed. This
option was not used for a long time and some fixes are necessary
after the lots of skeletton changes we made recently

- elfsh is indeed a package of ubuntu but its a very old version. Please
use the ERESI CVS version. The --enable-static problem will be fixed
later today.

We are trying to stabilize the codebase for a new, big release of ERESI,
but the API documentation is not finished, and some code is still in
testing, so it has to wait. I saw that ERESI was a candidate package for
debian (and other distributions) but I discourage its inclusion in the
current alpha version.

Have a good day
