#  The following set of CT-LIB libraries were determined automatically
#  by 'configure'.  For most systems configure looks up the required
#  libraries by looking at the name of the OS (although this doesn't
#  mean it got them right), however if the line below ends with the
#  word "Guess", then 'configure' didn't have an entry for your operating
#  system and it took a best guess to figure out which libraries you
#  need. In either case, there may be problems, so look this line over
#  and if it doesn't work, compare it to the libraries located in
#  $SYBASE/samples/ct-library.
#
#  The listings below show suggested libraries for Operating Systems
#  that frequently fail to be recognized by 'configure':
#
#  SCO:   -lblk -lct -lcs -lcomn -ltcl -ltli -lnsl_s -lintl -m -lsocket
#  Dynix: -lblk -lct -lcs -lcomn -ltcl -ltli -lnsl -lintl -lm -lseq
#
SYBASE_LIBS   = -lct -ldl -lm</PRE
