Why might this be? I'm running Linux Fedora 20. (abridged) Output of my attempts to configure: ============================== $ ./configure ... # list omitted configure: error: The following required libraries were not found: libpng libgif/libungif Maybe some development libraries/packages are missing? If you don't want to link with them give --with-png=no --with-gif=no as options to configure $ sudo yum install libpng libpng-devel ... # list omitted Package 2:libpng-1.6.6-3.fc20.x86_64 already installed and latest version Package 2:libpng-devel-1.6.6-3.fc20.x86_64 already installed and latest version Nothing to do $ whereis libpng libpng: /usr/lib64/libpng16.so /usr/lib64/libpng.so /usr/share/man/man3/libpng.3.gz ============================== Of course I've successfully built without the png libraries but I really do need the png libraries for other emacs packages. What's wrong? Why is it ignoring my working libpng?
