[Qgis-user] How to compile gdal with ESRI FileGDB

Hey. I have had a lot of things to do, but now I tried to make a sample
again. I also made a ln -s *libfgdblinuxrtl.so **libfgdbunixrtl.so* (ESRI
changed the name of the driver)  I tried again and still stuck on make in
samples, as in above and a very simulare error. I have build-essential with
a lot of depends...

I wonder if I need to change anything in linux dynamic linker (*ld*)?
