Hello, I'm trying to compile mjpegtools. 'configure' seemed to run fine, but when I run 'make' I get the following error:
"/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lX11" ...and make throws an Error 2. I've installed the following debian packages from the 'stable' dist: xfree-86-common_4.1.0-16woody3_all.deb xserver-common_4.1.0-16woody3_i386.deb xserver-xfree86_4.1.0-16woody3_i386.deb In my search on the net to resolve the problem, I found this suggestion: "It turns out that the /usr/X11R6/lib directory isn't part of the default ld(1) search path, so I needed to have the flag "-L/usr/X11R6/lib" somewhere before "-lX11" in the offending command." but I'm afraid I don't have enough know-how to know what file to edit and where to insert this, if it will indeed solve the problem. I've also seen a suggestion that I would need the xfree86-dev package, but I wasn't able to find anything like it to install. any help would be appreciated. thanks, Daniel ____________________________________________________________ Find what you are looking for with the Lycos Yellow Pages http://r.lycos.com/r/yp_emailfooter/http://yellowpages.lycos.com/default.asp?SRC=lycos10 ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: IBM Linux Tutorials Free Linux tutorial presented by Daniel Robbins, President and CEO of GenToo technologies.
