Ubuntu FreeRadius does not recoginize some perl.so symbols and does not compile from source and is also outdated (Why is there no new version in SID? Is the package still maintained?)

Possibly this?

*sigh*. What are you talking about.

You're building from 2.1.10 source. The fix wasn't put into the repo until:

c86003da (Alan T. DeKok 2011-01-20 16:01:17 +0100  9) CLIENTLIBS  = libeap/$(LIBPREFIX)freeradius-eap.la $(LIBRADIUS)

2.1.10 tag is from 28th September 2010, so of course it's not going to work, it doesn't have the fix?

and yes, the patch is to explicitly link the freeradius eap library agains the main radius library which contains that symbol…
