Error compiling BOINC server from source on Fedora RedHat 8.2

[dmkunsman]

I am getting an error when trying to compile a BOINC server from source. automake and configure work fine, but when I try make I get this error /usr/bin/ld: db_dump.o undefined reference to symbol gzwrite //usr/lib64/libz.so.1: error adding symbols: DSO missing from command line collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status

When I've encountered this sort of error it's been a problem of either the order of libraries on the command line or a circular dependency. If you provide the command being executed it might help.

Is this still an issue?

Not sure how this issue was opened for RHEL 8.2 in May 2019 when RHEL 8 came out in May 2019. I'm able to compile the client on RHEL 8.2 beta but so far not the server. I get a different error:

CXXLD libboinc.la libtool: error: 'libboinc_la-keyword.lo' is not a valid libtool object make[2]: *** [Makefile:1164: libboinc.la] Error 1 make[2]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs.... CXXLD libboinc.la

But that appears to be a multi-threaded make error. If I just run make a few times or with a single thread it builds the client and server just fine.
