RE: Configure: "Cannot compute sizeof(short)" on Solaris v 9

[DeBerry, Marshall]

Yeah, I've been trying to pass it all sorts of different options as to
where to find that library with no luck so far. I'm sure there is some
sort of override that can be done to configure to say "go *here* and
look for this library" but I'm missing something so far.
Any other ideas feel free to post.
  Thanks,
     Marshall

You have the same problem I had: The dynamic loader cannot find libgsl.
Here is the relevant line in config.log:

configure:13354: gcc -o conftest -I/usr/local/include
-I/usr/local/include -L/usr/local/lib conftest.c -lgnugetopt -lgsl
-lgslcblas -lgmp -lplot -lm  >&5
configure:13357: $? = 0
configure:13359: ./conftest
ld.so.1: ./conftest: fatal: libgsl.so.0: open failed: No such file or
directory
./configure: line 1: 26289 Killed                  ./conftest$ac_exeext


You should be able to fix this by telling the loader where libgsl
is:

        export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/where/you/put/libgsl

although this did not work on the idiosyncratic ukato.freeshell.org.
