Compiled from source - but want to add some libraries?

[mrdude]

Hi and sorry for the questions on my first post.

I just discovered the Merlin firmware a couple of days ago. I have downloaded the source from the git and managed to compile it properly and flash it to my Asus RT-AC87U.

I was really looking to add a couple of extra libraries to the router firmware so that I could run a program I have on the router. I need to have the following libraries:

ld-linux.so3
libc.so6
libdl.so2
librt.so1

I know i can symlink a couple of those libraries - but I don't know how or where the files are located in the source to do this, so i was looking to see if anyone here can help.

Thanks, and again - i know it's my first post, but searching the net brought me to here.

What are you trying to execute that requires those libraries?

Have you looked into Entware?

I want to run oscam from the router - but it needs those extra libs and the libs folder is read only - hence compiling from source - no i have never heard of entware. (and I don't want to attach a usb device) Thanks.

OK this is how I did it:
Put the libs in here:
asuswrt-merlin/release/src-rt-6.x.4708/toolchains/hndtools-arm-linux-2.6.36-uclibc-4.5.3/lib/

Edited: This to include the libs:

asuswrt-merlin/release/src-rt-6.x.4708/router/Makefile

Ran the Makefile and installed to my router - job done...

Thanks.

I have another question - since my router has an Arm 7 processor, will libraries and files that work on the raspberry pi2 also work on my router - as this also has an Arm7 processor?
