/**************************************************************************/ [bugs #11134] Full Item Snapshot: URL: <http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?func=detailitem&item_id=11134> Project: GNUstep Submitted by: Pupeno On: Thu 11/25/2004 at 20:07 Category: Base/Foundation Severity: 5 - Average Item Group: Change Request Resolution: None Privacy: Public Assigned to: None Status: Open Summary: ./configure meaningless error or similar Original Submission: While running ./configure on a very recent gnustep-base (grabbed with cvs a couple of hours ago) I had this error: checking for callback.h... no checking "for forwarding callback in runtime"... yes checking "FFI library usage"... libffi checking for xml2-config... /usr/bin/xml2-config checking for libxml - version >= 2.3.0... no *** Could not run libxml test program, checking why... You most likely do not want to build base without XML support. For instance, MacOS-X compatible property lists require XML. If you really want to build -base without XML support, add --disable-xml to the configure arguments. configure: error: Missing support for XML functionality. [EMAIL PROTECTED] base $ I'm currently running gentoo and there's nothing with my xml, and in fact, the problem is with libffi, which is installed in /usr/lib/libffi/ and /usr/include/libffi. Maybe that's not nice and the ./configure script can't detect it, but even then, the error should be more accurte. After running the following command, it worked: $ ./configure --with-ffi-include=/usr/include/libffi/ --with-ffi-library=/usr/l ib/libffi/ Thank you.
