Hi, all

I try to cross-compile a application (tor) which needs to be compiled 
against the libevent-library, which is not part of the standard toolchain.
when i try to compile i get the following error:

> checking whether we need extra options to link libevent... configure: 
> error: Found linkable libevent in (system), but it doesn't run, even

The libevent alone compile and installs fine, but it seems that it 
cannot linked against another package which also needs this library :-|
Does this mean, that i have to build a custom toolchain with a libevent 
version which is linkable while building the main application?
What i can do to solve this problem?

Thanks for your help

Olli
