A couple of things:
1) Your on an old OS (RHEL3) and using an ancient version of Perl, 5.8.0. It
looks like 5.8.1 came out in 9/2003, so 5.8.0 is even older. So, it's unlikely
without help, these build issues will remain unresolved. If you'd like to
submit patches to get the tool to build on your OS, that would be welcome.
2) You're using the Digest-MD5-M4p module, you should be using the Digest::MD5
module.
3) Try using the latest 2.x rrdtool package from
http://oss.oetiker.ch/rrdtool/download.en.html
The version packages with Orca is from the 1.x series and may not support 64 bit
OSes.
4) The build had this message:
> /usr/bin/ld: ../src/.libs//librrd_private.a(parsetime.o):
> relocation R_X86_64_32 can not be used when making a shared
> object; recompile with -fPIC
You may want to try adding the -fPIC command line options to the rrdtool build.
