I'm a bit baffled that /usr/local/lib is not in the LIBRARY_PATH - the ld library search path, but /usr/local/include is in the header search path. For gcc-3 and -4 On linux and default gcc /usr/local/lib is even before /usr/lib, but certainly not removed at all. See e.g. http://www.network-theory.co.uk/docs/gccintro/gccintro_23.html
I can only vaguely remember that this used to work before. So the local headers are picked up, but the linker fails to find the -l<libname>. I have to use export LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/lib ./configure make to be able to use local libs. -- Reini Urban http://phpwiki.org/ http://murbreak.at/ -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
