I don't have the file and don't have any of the wxWidgets installed, but at a guess... wrong version. This seems to be confirmed with a search: Google this for the fedora 1.0 beta 10 package: wxsvg-devel-1.0-0.8.b10 svgxml.h Now replace the b10 with b9, b8, etc. No hits. Delete the svgxml.h bit and you get hits again, so it's seeing the package, just not that file in the package. Therefore, it would seem that file was added in beta 10. Unfortunately, Gentoo's tree is outdated, with only the beta 7 ebuild. A quick check of bugzy results in: media-libs/wxsvg-1.0_beta10 version bump request http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=215665 Seems they're working on it, but it needs some patches to work with Gentoo, and while it's building, it isn't actually functional (segfaults). So... you can try hacking that ebuild and see if you can get it to work, or building and installing manually, to see if that works. I'd certainly suggest CCing yourself to the bug. It's also possible that whatever you are trying to build against that header file, you can either find an older version that builds against beta 7, or maybe, you can merge the building but segfaulting beta 10, and not have it matter if all you need are the header files. -- Duncan - List replies preferred.
