Re: Unable to find pnm library for libgocr

That looks like the library is called libnetpbm, but libgocr is tryng to link to libpnm (-lpnm). I bet if you `ln -sv libnetpbm.so libpnm.so', it would work.

Maybe -lpnm refers to older netpbm installations, notice that the last entry in libocr Changelog (find in gocr site) dates from 2001. Besides, I have a gentoo here, and libocr is not even in portage. And, for sure, is not nedeed to build gocr (last version, gocr-0.44 dates from Mar 2007) AA -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
