Error : undefined reference

I am using linux-mint 11 and trying to install 'sendip' tool from project purple on my machine.

I don't know much about makefile and linux internals.

but when trying to install it,getting these errors.Please help me with the issue.

What is most important to me this time is to get this tool installed on my machine as soon as possible.

It is installed perfectly on red hat machine without giving any eroor.

I searched on internet and found many solutions but none of them is working out even some looks irrelevent to me but on the safe side I tried them all ...

1. LDFLAGS='-ldl' make install
2. sudo apt-get install glibc*
3. make CFLAGS="${CFLAGS} -ldl"
4. sudo apt-get install libjpeg62-dev
5.  sudo apt-get install libdb-devel
6. sudo apt-get install libdbl

Error :

Encountered the same issue in Linux Mint 13 and Ubuntu 12.04. Here's what I did to fix this issue:

Install gcc-4.4

sudo apt-get install gcc-4.4

In the Makefile, set the 'cc' to point to gcc-4.4.

CC= gcc-4.4

Since you're on Linux, it would appear that the LDFLAGS_LINUX variable is used instead of LDFLAGS. Try adding -ldl to that line.
