It sounds like you want the libjpeg header files. It's not completely clear from the terse description in "fink list", but under Fink these would be in the "libjpeg" package, which will also install the libraries via a dependency on "libjpeg-shlibs". How to configure your package depends on its internal details. the instruction webpage isn't opening for me for some reason, so I don't have it in front of me. If you install libjpeg, the package may auto- detect it, or it may not. I'd recommend checking ./configure --help to see what the syntax of the options that it takes. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ Fink-beginners mailing list [email protected] http://news.gmane.org/gmane.os.apple.fink.beginners
