I don't. Most Linux distrib require that you install a *-dev package to get the libfoo.so linking to libfoo.so.1.2. A couple of linux dashbaord machine running ITK dashboard do not have this symlink either. > As cmake is working with absolute path you can use the file directly too. > But then you have do search for it manually. Could you please describe *exactly* what you did before posting, so that I can reproduce, I cannot achieve what you declare (cmake 2.4) Linking C executable testuuid /usr/bin/cmake -P CMakeFiles/testuuid.dir/cmake_clean_target.cmake /usr/bin/gcc -Wall -W -fPIC "CMakeFiles/testuuid.dir/testuuid.o" -o testuuid -rdynamic -L/lib -luuid -Wl,-rpath,/lib /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -luuid AFAIK, full path is *not* supported (at least not in cmake 2.4) -- Mathieu _______________________________________________ CMake mailing list [email protected] http://www.cmake.org/mailman/listinfo/cmake
