Missing files to compile with Autotools

<< < (5/6) > >>

fiammy:
when I do that, the executable complains that it can't find some dynamic libraries. Did I forget anything on the Wiki? because that were the steps I took to get the whole CVS to compile.

Cheers,
David

Yes, run 'ldconfig' as root

doscott:
With Fedora, and possibly others, you may need to edit the /etc/ld.so.conf file and add the library path to it:

include ld.so.conf.d/*.conf
/opt/wx/2.6/lib

or you could put the path in its own conf file and place it in ld.so.conf.d

There must be some configure flags to specify 64 bit library destination directories or something.  Either that or an autotools macro that says to use 64 bit directories if present or uname returns 64-bit machine or something.

As for the -devel rpms...most distros don't ship rpms containing headers and libs but break up source packages into the usual .rpm and then a -devel .rpm that you will need if you want to compile stuff against the package.  This doesn't apply if you build from source, since then a make && make install installs all headers and devel libs.  It's just a space consideration taken by a lot of distros.

Um... I got the feeling we *REALLY* need to start working on the wiki because we'll receive TONS of complains about Linux installs... :(
