Well, the problem here is more likely that you don't have libole2 headers installed... but even if you did, I would recommend you use the version of wv that come with abiword-1.0.4 since I suspect wv-0.7.4 is not compatible (I think wv-0.7.2 is, though).
i.e., make sure wv is in the same directory as abi, and abiword's configure should detect and build wv in the way it thinks best. Another point: the --with- arguments to configure usually don't expect you to specify .../include & .../lib (though there are some exceptions to this, they usually take the form --with-libetc-includes=.../include) What's more, it's generally a bad idea to use --with-whatever=/usr since /usr is the default location for stuff. Why specify "--with-libiconv"? Do you need/have GNU libiconv? Modern linux distributions have a perfectly good iconv. If unsure, please try without the "--with-libiconv". In summary, please try a simple: # cd abiword-1.0.4 # ls abi abidistfiles psiconv unixfonts wv # cd abi # ./configure --prefix=/usr # make # make install Regards, Frank On Tue, 4 Feb 2003, Darryl Cousins wrote: > I would like to configure and compile abiword on my > linuxfromscratch system.
