Compilation error on alma8

Tue Dec 12 08:56:01 UTC 2023

Hi,

I am trying to build freeradius for almalinux8. I see rlm_perl skipped in "make rpm" output so build failed.

It said EXTERN.h is not found in /usr/local/include, so I copied that file as a step in dockerfile. But it still throws not found error.

#35 51.14 checking for EXTERN.h in /usr/local/include/... no

I also see /usr/lib64/perl5/CORE/ is in include path(-isystem /usr/lib64/perl5/CORE), but not sure why it is not searching EXTERN.h in that path.

#35 51.10 checking for EXTERN.h... no

#35 51.14 checking for EXTERN.h in /usr/local/include/... no

#35 51.18 checking for EXTERN.h in /opt/include/... no

#35 51.23 checking for EXTERN.h in /usr/local/EXTERN/include/... no

#35 51.27 checking for EXTERN.h in /opt/homebrew/include/... no

#35 51.31 checking for EXTERN.h in /opt/homebrew/opt/EXTERN/include/... no

Below is the extracted output of the docker build.
