Subject: How to point an emacs build to gif libs
Date: Tue, 20 Jan 2015 16:40:33 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <873875w2pa.fsf@reader.local.lan> (raw)
setup Solaris OS (openindiana-hipster)
Trying to figure out how to tell configure where to look for gif
libraries by using ./configure's --help. It shows `--libdir=' so I
tried using that to point to /opt/csw/lib:/opt/csw/lib/amd64/
Where things like: libungif.so libgif.so.4.1.7 libgif.so and several
more like those, but not working out like I hoped.
My ./configure line:
PATH=$PATH ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/src/vcs/git/test
--with-x=yes --with-gif=yes --libdir=/opt/csw/lib:/opt/csw/lib/amd64
--with-imagemagick=yes --with-x-toolkit=athena
(the PATH= stuff was there to cure a problem where ./configure was
finding the wrong (old) verion of makeinfo... the PATH variable
seemed to head it the right way /opt/csw/bin/)
So with that ./configure line, it ends with:
,----
| [...]
| configure: error: The following required libraries were not found:
| libgif/libungif
| Maybe some development libraries/packages are missing?
| If you don't want to link with them give
| --with-gif=no
| as options to configure
`----
Having emacs built with gif or not is really small potatoes, my query
is more to for once and for all... learn how to tell ./configure some
kinds of things.
