Hi,
"d.henman" <dhenman@gmail.com> skribis:

The configure script checks for libffi via the pkg-config tool.
What does ‘pkg-config libffi --cflags --libs’ return on your machine?
If it shows an error, this means that either the PKG_CONFIG_PATH
environment variable does not contain the directory where libffi.pc is,
or that the file libffi.pc is missing from your libffi installation.
HTH,
Ludo’.
