Hello...

I dunno if these newsgroups are the correct ones for this problem,
but they seemed the most appropriate, so here it goes...

Whenever I try to compile an app under the current version
of Allegro for Linux, I get a bunch of linker errors about undefined
symbols.  Specifically, I get...

/usr/lib/liballegro.so: undefined reference to '_dma_lock_mem'
/usr/lib/liballegro.so: undefined reference to 'key_ascii_table'
/usr/lib/liballegro.so: undefined reference to '__crt0_argv'
/usr/lib/liballegro.so: undefined reference to 'rest_callback'
/usr/lib/liballegro.so: undefined reference to 'getline'

The command line I'm using is:
gcc -Wall -lm -lallegro sources.c -o executeme

I've got NO idea what's causing this.  However, the link of the
library itself was a bit odd... ld couldn't read the warning*.lo files
(they only contained the text timestamp) and wouldn't link them,
so I manually linked, omitting those files.  It went fine, until I tried
to link it to an app and everything fell apart.

I've tried sending e-mail to the guy who's porting Allegro to Linux.
I haven't gotten a response, though it's only been 14 hours or so, so...
just don't have any time to waste :)

Any help you can give me on this subject would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you very much for your time.
