rand48 routines



They've been missing since the release of X. Will be in the next release.

Workaround is to borrow the rand48 source files from FreeBSD and make your own rand48 library. A real pain.

Subject: rand48 routines
From: Jon McCormack <email@hidden>
To: email@hidden

Hello,
I am trying to compile some code that uses the rand48 family of random
number generators. If I do a "man 3 rand48" I get:
NAME
      drand48, erand48, lrand48, nrand48, mrand48, jrand48, srand48,
seed48,
      lcong48 - pseudo random number generators and initialization
routines

SYNOPSIS
      #include <stdlib.h>

      double
      drand48(void)
... etc.

However, at the linking stage the symbols in this library are undefined.
Are they really there somewhere or are they missing? Any suggestions on
which library might be needed to link with?
Thanks in advance.

Jon.
