Hi Kerstyn

Not every configure parameter is required in fact your configure output is looking pretty good. The only one I would be concerned about right now is the pdf lib. Go ahead and install.

make
sudo make install

and let's see where we're at.  We can always uninstall if necessary.

sudo make uninstall

Good luck
Chris

Thanks for all your ongoing help. I'm very new to all this. I've installed the files you suggested and reran configure. How can I tell if it has worked properly without making and installing? The config log is still showing errors with the header file confdefs.h

Thanks,
Kerstyn

    Oops, my mistake.  It looks like both Ubuntu and Mint have got rid
    of lib64 in their latest releases.  If you installed, uninstall
    and we'll start fresh (sudo make uninstall).

    First off, install these packages (if not already installed) to
    fill a few more dependencies:

    libmp3lame-dev
    libzzip-dev
    libfontconfig1-dev
    libfftw3-dev
    libgif-dev

    now try this command line:

    ./configure --prefix=/usr

    if that doesn't work, try:

    ./configure --prefix=/usr --libexecdir=/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu

    and we'll see where we're at.

    Good luck
    Chris

    Chris,

    Thanks I'm getting closer but I suspect that I'm still not able
    to run configure properly as I get errors when I try to run
    pdf2swf. The new config log is attached.

    Thanks,
    Kerstyn

        Make sure you have zlib1g-dev installed.  The configure is
        looking for pkgconfig and header files.  Anything that it
        fails on, make sure you have the -dev (developement) package
        installed.

        Hope it helps

        Thanks locating pointing the config file to the correct
        location of libexec has moved me on a bit but now I get the
        message 'ERROR: you need zlib to compile swftools'

        I have checked that I have zlib1g install (zlib doesn't seem
        to exist) so not sure what to do next.

        Thanks,

            After a quick look I noticed this:
            --libexecdir=/usr/lib

            Your running a 64 bit system.  I don't know Mint but
            chances are your libexecdir is /usr/lib64.

            Try this command line:

            ./configure --prefix=/usr --libexecdir=/usr/lib64

            Hope it works.

            Hi,

            I'm trying to install Swftools on Mint 16 but am unable
            to configure the make file. I have checked that the gcc
            complier is installed and works. Attached is the
            config.log.

            I've trawled the internet but cannot find any
            solutions. I've also been unable to install freetype as
            that also won't configure. Any help you can give would
            be much appreciated.

            Thanks,
            Kerstyn
