libgcrypt1.9.0: Failure on linking test executables

Thanks a lot.

I think that it's better practice to do "make check" before
installation.

And to do that, we need to specify LD_LIBRARY_PATH too (as well as
PATH), so that testing programs in the build procedure run correctly.

Like this:

+++ libgcrypt-test-install-fixed.sh	2021-01-22 12:29:42.725628836 +0900

+make && make check && make install

+export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/libgpg-error/lib
 
 cd /tmp/libgcrypt-1.9.0
 ./configure --prefix=/opt/libgcrypt --disable-doc
-make && make install
+make && make check && make install

And... this works, with no linking errors.

The problem is somehow complicated.  The linker checks runtime libraries
under LD_LIBRARY_PATH.


In your case, even if you don't need 'make check', please specify
LD_LIBRARY_PATH.
