[aspectc-user] Building from source

[Eric Schaefer]

Hello List!

I am trying to build ac-1.0pre2. First strange thing: I had to install
the binary ac++ and ag++ to be able to compile at all, since ag++ is
needed to compile Puma and Puma is needed to compile ac++ and ag++.

Well, with ac++ and ag++ installed I was able to compile Puma, but when
trying to build ac++ I get:

> Linking bin/linux-release/ac++.
> /usr/lib/libxml2.a(nanohttp.o): In function `xmlNanoHTTPConnectHost':

Seems like ld doesn't know where pthread_cond_wait() comes from, so I
tried "LDFLAGS=-lpthread make", but ld doesn't like it either.

The machine is running Ubuntu Linux 5.10.

What am I doing wrong?
