yet another problem in compiling
i am trying to recompile gimp-1.2.5.tar.gz, as I had to wipe the system.
I have spent all morning downloading and installing everything, that I
can gather from the install script, that is required.
I still get this at the end of the 'make' part.
/usr//bin/ld: cannot find -lslang
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make[3]: *** [aa] Error 1
make[3]: Leaving directory `/home/david/gimp-1.2.5/plug-ins/common'
make[2]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/david/gimp-1.2.5/plug-ins'
make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/david/gimp-1.2.5'
make: *** [all-recursive-am] Error 2
I've looked at rpmfind for this 'lslang' but no clues are given. I've
tried a general search using google, with the clue that it may have
something to do with mpeg. Nothing definite though.
As far as '[aa]' is concerned I have made a point of installing all the
rpms. The following shows that there there.
[david@localhost david]$ rpm -q libaa1
libaa1-1.4.0-0.rc5.5mdk
[david@localhost david]$ rpm -q libaa1-devel
libaa1-devel-1.4.0-0.rc5.5mdk
[david@localhost david]$ rpm -q libaa1-static-devel
libaa1-static-devel-1.4.0-0.rc5.5mdk
[david@localhost david]$
And the same for mpeg
[david@localhost david]$ rpm -q libmpeg2dec0-devel
libmpeg2dec0-devel-0.3.1-2mdk
[david@localhost david]$ rpm -q libmpeg2dec0
libmpeg2dec0-0.3.1-2mdk
So any clues..........please?!
