A couple of weeks ago I tired to get going on a build to JUST test out
hsqldb 2.2.9 and my now Oracle Java
1.7.0_17 version. (opensuse 12.2 Linux). Yes, this was the first time I
actually tried to do an AOO build, but, decided it was time. :}

I wanted  to setup the config to eliminate as many the bells and whistles,
so I disabled a bunch of stuff.
(More about that in another post soonish.)

Long story short, I had a difficult time getting "configure" to find
libraries I have installed. It seems the script uses pkg-config to find
libraries. Unfortunately, in my case, only about a third of the libraries I
have installed conform to pkg-config, i.e. have the proper ".pc" meta
files. So, my local jpeg library, for example, was not found.

I could have had a VERY exasperating time putting in all the specs for the
libraries not found. So those that weren't were pulled from "extras", etc.
but I'm wondering if there's something we could use to replace the
pkg-config calls. Any ideas?

We could use "whereis" to find them I guess, but I don't know if this is
sufficient.



To test hsqldb 2.2.9 and java7 I just used the --with switches and left everything alone.
