French: Il y a une librarie qui s'appelle "libibmidas.a.a"? Peut-etre
il y a une librarie qui s'appelle "libmidas.a"? Si c'est comme ca, il
faut ecrire "-lmidas" pas "-libmidas.a". Je crois.

Svenska: Kan inte norska så du får hålla tillgodo med svenska. Har du
ett bibliotek som heter "libibmidas.a.a"? Kanske du har ett som heter
"libmidas.a". Om det är så måste du skriva ""-lmidas" och inte
"-libmidas.a". Tror jag.

English: Left as an exercise for the other readers.


Right,
