I have abiword working on my BLFS system. I am using abiword-2.6.3
(which I compiled with --disable-scripting to avoid the need of
lib wv-1.0).
I had previously installed (in --prefix=/usr):
gnome-icon-theme-2.22.0
libgnomecanvas-2.14.0 note that later versions of libgnomecanvas-2.20.1.1
require libgail which needs GNOME-Panel and AT-SPI.
libgnomecups-0.2.3
libgnomeprint-2.18.4
libgnomeprintui-2.18.2
I for one will be glad when the abiword developers move to the GTK2
print system. However, the gnomeprint system is, IMHO, still better
with regard to lpr (not CUPS) systems as gnomeprint allows you to
select from all the printers listed in /etc/printcap.
Try running ldconfig as root to update the library cache and links.
Then, see if abiword's ./configure can see your libgnomeprint.
Another idea is to look for (and the contents of) libgnomeprint-2.2.pc
and libgnomeprintui-2.2.pc in /usr/lib/pkgconfig, or ask pkg-config:
pkg-config --modversion libgnomeprint-2.2
You could also try looking at the configure log to see if it
shows what the exact problem is (e.g., can't find lib, can't find
headers, etc.).
