Description Petter Reinholdtsen 2003-04-03 04:02:42 AEST 
The OpenSSH v3.6p1 source fails to compile on Irix 6.5.  I get the following
error message:

  [...]

Comment 1 Petter Reinholdtsen 2003-04-03 04:18:24 AEST 
This is from 'man 3 basename':

  cc [flag ...] file ... -lgen [library ...]

  #include <libgen.h>
  char *basename (char *path);

I guess configure should insert '-lgen' before testing for basename().
Comment 2 Darren Tucker 2003-05-04 10:16:10 AEST 
Fixed in 3.6.1p2.  From ChangeLog:
20030429
[snip]
 - (djm) Some systems have basename in -lgen. Fix from ayamura@ayamura.org

This also affected Solaris (and possibly other platforms).
