Make sure /usr/local/lib is in ld.so.conf, and run "ldconfig". See the INSTALL document in your CVS checkout, under "3. OPTIONAL: Install geoTIFF support. The problem is that while the C compiler finds the non-shared version of the library Just Fine, the dynamic loader doesn't know about /usr/local/lib and doesn't find the shared version at run time. -- Tom Russo KM5VY SAR502 DM64ux http://www.swcp.com/~russo/ Tijeras, NM QRPL#1592 K2#398 SOC#236 AHTB#1 http://kevan.org/brain.cgi?DDTNM "It's so simple to be wise: just think of something stupid to say and then don't say it." --- Sam Levinson _______________________________________________ Xastir mailing list [email protected] http://lists.xastir.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/xastir
