1.1.7 on Debian sarge ?

[oz]

Hello list,

doesn't freeradius-1.1.7 no longer compile on Debian sarge (oldstable)?

I get these errors on after ./configure and make:

/usr/local/src/freeradius-1.1.7#

But I can compile 1.1.7 on Debian etch (stable) and Debian lenny (testing).
Am I just missing a Debian developement package or something?

I'd like to update our productive sarge installations before I try distro 
updates. Any ideas or known issues with Debian sarge?

Thanks.
