Hi

I would like to try the rrdcached, but the I can't compile it. I get the
following answers:
.
.
processes . . . . . . yes
rrdcached . . . . . . no (dependency error)
rrdtool . . . . . . . yes
.
.

I tried it like this:
./configure --prefix=/usr/local/collectd/ --enable-logfile
--enable-rrdcached --enable-rrdtool --enable-snmp --enable-syslog
--enable-unixsock --enable-debug --with-librrd=/usr/local/rrdtool/lib/

What else is the necessery for it?

Thank you in advance.
