Hello again Sanju,

Thank you very much for your input.
Unfortunately, running './configure --without-libtirp' does not help and the
problem still persists.

I've opened a new thread on the matter under the name "Gluster on RHEL 8"
for organization purposes (and also attached some output files) and would
appreciate if you could offer further assistance.

Thank you very much,

Barak
