You've been tolerant of a beginner's question, so let me ask one more.
I seem to have built libwpd from the latest sources and installed it.
/usr/local/lib has libwpd-0.9.9 dylib, libwpd-0.9.la, and libwpd-stream-0.9.la.
And /usr/local/include has a libwpd-0,9 folder.
When I try to configure libwpg, I get these error messages:
configure: error: Package requirements (
libwpd-0.9 >= 0.9.0
libwpd-stream-0.9 >= 0.9.0
) were not met:
No package 'libwpd-0.9' found
No package 'libwpd-stream-0.9' found
Further messages suggest adjusting the PKG_ENVIRONMENT_PATH environment
variable, or "Alternatively, you may set the environment variables
WRITERPERFECTCORE_CFLAGS and WRITERPERFECTCORE_LIBS to avoid the need to call
pkg-config."
Again, any experienced person will know what to do, but I am entirely lost. Any
help gratefully received. And apologies for wasting your time with my
beginner's questions.
