[ale] IcqMail compile issues... library probs?

[Beeland, Jason]

Ok, it was a library linking issue.  The configure for
the package wasn't setting the LIBS in the Makefile
propperly so i hadda do a little research and add the
propper entries for guile.  My thanks so Joe Knapka for
pointing this out to me and i'm happy to report it just
compiled and installed cleanly finally.

Thanks all!

It looks like the linker command is not specifying the
guile library (-lguile or libguile.so or something similar -
I've never built this package or anything that uses guile,
so I don't know for sure.).
In the Makefile there's probably a LIBS variable; make
sure the guile lib is in the list.

This sort of problem sometimes results from not properly
"./configure"-ing a package before you try to build it
(assuming there is a "configure" script shipped with the
source).
