Re: [DynInst_API:] Cannot link Dyninst to Ubuntu

[Ray Chen <rchen@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Trung,

I've been working on your issue, and I can't reproduce the error.  It
looks like you're trying to build an application called "esorics" that
depends on Dyninst, rather than Dyninst itself.

Can you tell us a little more about how you generated the config.log
file?  Like did your ~/Downloads/Attribution/esorics directory come
from a tarball and, if so, what tarball was it?

Thanks,
- Ray
