Ah! yes, I built it with the static library. And thank you for the
response.
 
BUT... I've now built the dynamic Ruby library, and re-linked the code:
 
  $ ldd regdb.so
        libruby.so.1.6 => /usr/local/lib/libruby.so.1.6 (0x4001c000)
        libm.so.6 => /lib/libm.so.6 (0x400e1000)
        libdl.so.2 => /lib/libdl.so.2 (0x40103000)
        libcrypt.so.1 => /lib/libcrypt.so.1 (0x40108000)
        libc.so.6 => /lib/libc.so.6 (0x40135000)
        /lib/ld-linux.so.2 => /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x80000000)
 
And it _still_ gives me this:
  $ perl test.pl
Ruby exception: /opt/lib/ruby/1.6/i686-linux/digest/md5.so: undefined
symbol: rb_cObject - /opt/lib/ruby/1.6/i686-linux/digest/md5.so
 
Any thoughts?
 
Many thanks in advance,
