This is my fault. I had initially put in popt as a required dependency for libgnomeprint when David Jensen suggested it. However, then somebody else (I think, but I may be mistaken on this) mentioned that it was not required, but only optional. And in the last update of libgnomeprint (to the 2.12.1) version, I moved it from a required to an optional dependency (with the note about only for the test programs). Apparently, I didn't do a good enough research job, as looking at the configure script it does appear to list -lpopt in "Tools libs" (or something like that). Anyway, I will fix libgnomeprint right now and put popt back to a required dependency again. Sorry about that, Andy, and thanks for bringing it up so that we get the book right. -- Randy rmlscsi: [GNU ld version 2.15.94.0.2 20041220] [gcc (GCC) 3.4.3] [GNU C Library stable release version 2.3.4] [Linux 2.6.10 i686] 16:46:00 up 79 days, 2:10, 3 users, load average: 0.17, 0.21, 0.25 -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
