[Discuss-gnuradio] gr-air will not link correctly on 64 bit Ubuntu 12.04 says incompatible with

[Lee McKusick]

Hello discuss-gnuradio list this is Lee M,

Making the gr-air application on a 64 bit Ubuntu 12.04 computer stops
with a linking error.

I found the Wiki instruction about editing /etc/ld.so.conf 

The wiki entry is:
http://gnuradio.org/redmine/projects/gnuradio/wiki/UbuntuInstall#Broken-libtool-on-Debian-and-Ubuntu

It seems to me that /etc/ld.so.conf is a list of directories that the
linker "ld" is being configured to vist, yes? 

I tried various versions of adding the text "/usr/local/lib" to
ld.so.conf, I ran ldconfig. The make error stayed the same.

Here is the text of the linking error:

cat errortext.txt

        Thank you so much for your comment. Cordially yours, Lee M
