I did compile ht://Dig on Mandrake 8.0. Thank you, Gilles. You showed me the right way. After reading your mail, I thought to use "ldd htsearch" and i saw that, on 8.0, it didn't compile zlib.so in ! (I'm using "compression_factor: 9" in my .conf files). I installed a missing rpm : zlib1-devel-(version).rpm and recompiled everything. Now, it is working perfectly well, just as before. For whom it may concern : Mandrake 8.0 seems not to install zlib1-devel-(version).rpm but only zlib1-(version).rpm by default. I didn't pay attention enough to ./configure output. Sorry for the annoyance. Thanks again, Gilles. -- Olivier Korn Strasbourg, France _______________________________________________ htdig-general mailing list <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To unsubscribe, send a message to <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> with a subject of unsubscribe FAQ: http://htdig.sourceforge.net/FAQ.html
