That was part, but not all, of it:


gcc  -g -Wall   -o shar shar.o encode.o ../lib/libgnu.a  ../lib/libgnu.a
shar.o: In function `shar':
/home/gnu/proj/sharutils-bld/src/shar.c:1576: undefined reference to 
`md5_stream'
shar.o: In function `main':
/home/gnu/proj/sharutils-bld/src/shar.c:2190: undefined reference to 
`get_submitter'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

If getting "whoami" and "md5" don't yield these functions, then what?

$ find lib -type f|xargs egrep 'md5_stream|get_submitter'
lib/whoami.c:get_submitter (buffer)
lib/system.h:char *get_submitter __P ((char *));
lib/md5.c:md5_stream (stream, resblock)
lib/md5.h: * the functions `md5_stream' and `md5_buffer'.
lib/md5.h:extern int md5_stream __P ((FILE *stream, void *resblock));
