Okay. The Readme.txt file in the out-of-date package says that its
prebuilt library is only useful in Fedora; not much help there.>

The package I tried to use (0.10.0) appears to be the only option
available,
unless the SVN repository has a binary build in it?
The svn checkout worked fine.

The install worked fine, except that I had to replace --export-dynamic
with -rdynamic in the Makefile.
Now the test routines work. Thanks!

Since building 0.11.0 works fine, I don't think that's necessary; but
there
is nothing on the download webpage that would tell a prospective user that
0.10.0 is not usable, or that svn checkout is the way to go. Perhaps it is
time for that old download package to be replaced with the current one? (I'm
not knowledgeable enough to do much more than download a tarball and compile
it, or I'd help out there.)
Much obliged,
Leslie
