Thank you for taking time out to look into this! I removed id3lib
completely:
rm /usr/lib/*id3*
rm /usr/local/lib/*id3*

then:
ldconfig

ldconfig -p | grep id3       at this point returns nothing

unpacked id3lib-3,8.3 and built it:

tar zxvf id3lib-3,8.3.tar.gz
./configure --prefix=/usr
make
make install
ldconfig

ldconfig -p | grep id3     returns:

        libid3.so (libc6) => /usr/lib/libid3.so
        libid3-3.8.so.3 (libc6) => /usr/lib/libid3-3.8.so.3

so it still returns more than 1 link
but... easytag configure works with no problems and at least 1.1 built
successfully!! thanks for walking me
through some of the possibilties

Regards


PS I realized this had only gone to actual sender not the group Not sure 
what nettiquette is in this case and its a small matter that was solved
by futzing around not by an improved understanding of the situation
(at least not at my end) but Im posting my last reply. It seemed the 
right thing to do. I hate when list-serves have partial exchanges.
