does it use /usr/lib & /usr/lib64 foo? if it does. this is likely the source of some of the problems. the autotools just don't deal with such a situation very gracefully, yet. as a result, it's really easy to make libtool use the wrong libraries. -- <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> _______________________________________________ EUGLUG mailing list [email protected] http://www.euglug.org/mailman/listinfo/euglug
