I have installed berkeley db and gnucobol-3.1-rc1 on Debian 10 Linux VM.
Installing by
"sudo ./configure && make && make install" failed on make, but
succeeded as separate steps of
sudo ./configure
sudo make
sudo make install
However, on cobc run I get following error
$ cobc -x hello.cob
cobc: symbol lookup error: cobc: undefined symbol: cob_is_xml_namestartchar
I believe this is a bug.
Is this something to be fixed by some configuring, or should I make some changes in libcob/mlio.c
or should I use configure options --with-xml2 / -without-xml2 ?
