Hi Ralf,
Thanks for your reply - I ve done what you told me - but now the error seems
to shift to the following (in config.log) :
configure:2783: checking for suffix of executables
configure:2790: g++ -o conftest -I -L conftest.cpp >&5
configure:2793: $? = 0
configure:2817: result:
configure:2823: checking for suffix of object files
configure:2849: g++ -c -I conftest.cpp >&5
g++: no input files
configure:2852: $? = 1
configure: failed program was:
| /* confdefs.h. */
| #define PACKAGE_NAME "libgeneva"
| #define PACKAGE_TARNAME "libgeneva"
| #define PACKAGE_VERSION "0.5.0"
| #define PACKAGE_STRING "libgeneva 0.5.0"
| #define PACKAGE "libgeneva"
| #define VERSION "0.5.0"
| /* end confdefs.h. */
|
| int
| main ()
| {
|
| ;
| return 0;
| }
configure:2867: error: cannot compute suffix of object files: cannot compile
See `config.log' for more details.
And I don't know what to make out of that. Furthermore the config.log does not
contain any references to "-lgeneva" - I guess the configure script fails
before the library is included (what after all was the purpose to use
AC_SEARCH_LIBS - do you have any idea how to proceed from here.
Many thanks in advance
Stefan

Try
./configure LDFLAGS=-L/usr/local/lib CPPFLAGS=-I/usr/local/include
and if that doesn't work, look into config.log, find the sections where
it searches for -lgeneva and why that fails. There may be undefined
symbols from needed libraries or similar.
Hope that helps.
Cheers,
Ralf
