Or is it another one of those things added to Mandrake for someone have you installed the "developer" version of mandrake (it asks you during install).. if not, then you won't be able to compile anything.. if yes, then a package is probably missing.. fire up kpackage or rpmdrake and find this file... and u'll know instantly what RPM you need to installed, or if its already there, then where it is. > to "appreciate" the architecture. I have had so many probs with this past > install of mandrake...guess what...I'm going to re-install yet you _never_ have to re-install a linux machine.. its something that came from the windoze world... there is always a way to solve the problem. btw, get the gphoto rpm from mandrake's site rather than any other site.. go to rpmfind.net.. go to Mandrake.. check if its there in the 7.1 RPMS (if its there, means its also there on u're CD).. neway, if u want the latest, go to Cooker (under Mandrake on rpmfind.net) and I'am sure they'll have the latest working, stable version of gphoto out there.. pick it and install it. my general sugggestion to all.. allways search for RPMs on Mandrake's cooker first.. if its not there, only then download it from other sources. -sarang > again...maybe redhat this time.
