configure error under Solaris 8
Greetings,

I'm wondering if anyone can help me understand a problem I've encountered
while trying to compile wackamole-1.2.0.

Per the instructions in the wackamole README, I've installed Spread (the
spread-bin-3.16.1 release), the daemon is running, the Spread header files
and libsp.a are in my wackamole-1.2.0 source tree, yet for some reason
when I run configure it returns the following error:

checking for SP_connect in -ltsp... no
configure: error: *** wackamole requires Spread ***


I'm apparently missing something here. :) If anyone has any ideas or input
I'd greatly appreciate hearing from you.

Best regards,
Jason Kelly

wackamole is threaded. It requires the libtsp library, not the libsp.
That _should_ have come the Spread binary package. If it did not,
download the source and compile it.
