Hmm. On Debian/Ubuntu configure is given a special --libdir option. Strangely enough, this is so since version 2.5.1.26349-0 (2.5.1 RC1) and is due to adding support for multi-arch (ability to install 32-bit packages on 64-bit system) -- a novelty in Debian/Ubuntu. Before that there was no --libdir option given to configure and it worked alright. Perhaps this is becayse the package build system doesn't use 'make install' but only '$(MAKE) -C gen -f Makefile.install buildRoot' and then hand-picks files from the resulting tree and dispatches them in different packages. My guess is that 'make silent_install' needs to be taught to use the system library path, whatever that may be. Not sure of the exact details, autoconf is a small mystery to me, but perhaps @libdir@ needs to be plugged somewhere. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Master Visual Studio, SharePoint, SQL, ASP.NET, C# 2012, HTML5, CSS, MVC, Windows 8 Apps, JavaScript and much more.
