Hello all.
I just subscribed to the list. I've installed trplayer many times in the
past on Linux systems where I've wanted to run gSpinner, a gtk based program
for [EMAIL PROTECTED] (formerly Spinner). gSpinner depends on trplayer.
I've never had a problem getting trplayer working on a Linux desktop, but
have never had success getting it working on a FreeBSD desktop. Has anyone
else ever had success on FreeBSD?
When I extract the source and run configure I get the following:
===================================================================

=======================================================================
Where does one find a dl library for FreeBSD? If I google libdl all I see
are scads of RPM packages; nothing that will do FreeBSD any good. Is that
even what I should be looking for?
Thanks in advance for any help.
