Fails to build on Ubuntu 11.10

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Attempt to build firmware-mod-kit on xubuntu 11.10

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

This is the second error, the first one was fixed by switching out cramfsswap 
with a version referenced by: 
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cramfsswap/+bug/770935

And I have no idea how to fix this one. 

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
SVN checkout from November 1, 2011

Please provide any additional information below.

I successfully built it on Ubuntu 10.04 without problem.

Not unless zlib1g-dev installs differently than on 10.04.

james@james-virtual-machine:~/Desktop/RE_p6250/firmware-mod-kit-read-only/trunk/
src$ dpkg --get-selections | grep zlib
zlib1g                      install
zlib1g-dbg                  install
zlib1g-dev                  install

solutions offered, and it didn't help.

Maybe try reinstalling them. You are missing a dependency, or have something 
wrong. It does build under Ubuntu 11.10 fine.

Tried again this morning with a fresh install of xubuntu 11.10, with the same 
result. I recorded it, if that helps: 
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sLcc8FiQzdg&hd=1&t=10m15s (only about a minuet 
of relevant info)

It boils down to: 
*install*
*install updates*
apt-get install build-essentials zlib1g-dev subversion
svn checkout http://firmware-mod-kit.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/ 
firmware-mod-kit-read-only
cd firmware-mod-kit-read-only/trunk/src
make

*error*

Yes, I apologize for being dismissive at first, we had gotten several easily 
dismissed cases like this. Anyway, I have to find time to test and look into 
this. Or Craig, if he gets the time. Please hold, and thanks ;)

It's fine, I'm still half expecting that I've made a mistake somewhere myself.
I'll see if I can find the issue, but  I probally lack the skillset.

At present on Ubuntu 11.10 I get a different error building cramfs. I have not 
looked into it much yet, but crc32 may have been removed from a shared library 
or CRT update. This could cause other build errors, though this is the first 
one I saw.

The cramfsswap issue is a problem with the makefile. The -lz option should be 
at the end of the gcc line; moving it to the end of the gcc line fixes the 
build. I suspect the other squashfs issues are similar as some link against 
zlib fine while others fail. Should be an easy fix.

Ah, good. Easy fix. I love it when programmers get more anal about command line 
ordering in later versions, something I've seen nowhere else outside linux ;p

Makefiles updated, builds properly on Ubunu 11.10.

As always, I, and all who use the FMK thank you Craig. For those who don't 
know, Craig has been the one who has revived, and indeed rewritten this project.

Thanks Jeremy, glad to help as always. :)

I have the same issue. I ran ./configure, then edited the Makefile in 
squashfs-tools and deleted -lz from line 13 (LD_LIBS += ...) and added it to 
the end of lines 26 and 32 (also LDLIBS += ... but as dependencies). That 
seemed to fix the problem.

Actually two new squashfs variants were added. I've fixed them both now. 
Committing in minutes, making last tests.

Ok, give 'er a go now.
