 Newer Linux distributions are now shipping with GCC 11 which has depreciated some functions used in the Makefile for Cryptlib 3.4.5 causing the compile to fail.  To work around this, either the source code needs to be updated, or a copy of GCC 9 must be installed in order to compile Cryptlib. Newer Linux distributions are now shipping with GCC 11 which has depreciated some functions used in the Makefile for Cryptlib 3.4.5 causing the compile to fail.  To work around this, either the source code needs to be updated, or a copy of GCC 9 must be installed in order to compile Cryptlib.
