Disregard what i have written-at least most of it.I have it
working. the ./configure --enable share command was the charm.
cheers for your help

OK. I followed the leads, and now only the mpeg plugins seems to be
lost on ./configure. However I still am having problems with make and
make install as the following demonstrates.
cc1: warning: changing search order for system directory
/usr/local/include
cc1: warning: as it has already been specified as a non-system directory
I have checked the ld.so.conf file to see if /usr/local/include is
there-it is.
Even because of this the gimp does open. But I cannot open any
images-the tips file is reported to be not there, and the plugins
cannot be found.
Ive checked the gimp pages
http://www.rru.com/~meo/gimp/faq-dev.html#jpegtiff. this is some of
what is there
The first method below works for most people, but if not, look at the
second one.
*Method 1*
Assuming you have the correct versions of the JPEG and TIFF libraries
(see below http://www.rru.com/%7Emeo/gimp/faq-dev.html#jpegtiff2)
built on your system, edit the plug-ins/Makefile to add the following
lines after the *INCLUDES = \* line:
-I/usr/local/include/jpeg \ -I/usr/local/include/tiff \
I notice the /usr/local/include again. So should the libjpeg be in
/usr/local/include not in /usr/lib as on my system, or should the
instruction (method 1) above show -I/usr/lib/jpeg \ -I/usr/lib/tiff \
Again thanks for the help-I really would like to get this
working!!

Yep. You probably need to install something like 'mpeg-devel' if you're
rpms, etc. If your compiling these libs yourself, './configure
--enable-shared' before 'make' 'make install' is the trick.

Thanks for the help. But now I am going to be stupid-what are the
header
files? Do you mean header files for mpeg, xpm?
you may have figured, but I am a newbie.
Hi,

I have got the 1.2.4.tar.gz of the gimp. Upon compiling 3 plugins
were not found-xpm, mpeg, and gtkxmhtml. i've just checked my
system
and mpeg and xpm are on the system. Is the error created because a
gimp plugin is different from a standard component, such as the mpeg
which is on the system, or is the problem occuring because of
something different such as the path needing to be incuded in
ldconfig.
You are probably missing the header files needed to compile software
using these libraries. Most distributions install the headers
separately from the libraries.
