>Description:
When compiling libsysinfo, the following happens:
---------------
/usr/local/lib/libsysinfo.so: undefined reference to `kvm_getprocs'
/usr/local/lib/libsysinfo.so: undefined reference to `kvm_open'
/usr/local/lib/libsysinfo.so: undefined reference to `kvm_getloadavg'
/usr/local/lib/libsysinfo.so: undefined reference to `kvm_getswapinfo'
/usr/local/lib/libsysinfo.so: undefined reference to `kvm_close'
cc: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)
---------------
In libsysinfo's Makefile there should be a reference to kvm (as a linker option).
>How-To-Repeat:
Compile libsysinfo.
>Fix:
Add the missing -lkvm switch.
