Freeradius rlm_perl with Custom Perl

[Onur GURSOY]

Hello Alan,

You have to fix the linker to use that library instead of the system one.

Thanks for your answer. It's good point. So, Is there a configuration
option for build. Why im saying this: because all.mk is produced after
./configure operation ? If yes first i have to configure radius and then i
have to change all.mk files.

Generally, you're right. But i want to exactly this, I mean, freeradius
should use one library which is installed by me, system should use any
other library

Many Many Thanks,
With My Best Regards,
