[rrd-users] rrdtool build failing with perl modules

[rbandi]

I have resolved this problem by modifying Makefile.PL for perl bindings.

Here's the line I modified in
rrdtool-1.2.30/bindings/perl-shared/Makefile.PL

Before: my $librrd = "-L../../src/.libs/ $R -lrrd";

After: my $librrd = "-L../../src/.libs/ -L<BUILD_DIR>/lb/lib $R -lrrd";

I've appended -L<BUILD_DIR>/lb/lib to the librrd scalar. <BUILD_DIR> is in
which directory you built the dependent libraries.
