I then (just in case) installed the latest libffi by hand. Its README indicates that: Libffi will install under /usr/local by default. Indeed: $ find /usr -name 'libffi.*' /usr/lib/libffi.dylib /usr/local/lib/libffi.5.dylib /usr/local/lib/libffi.a /usr/local/lib/libffi.dylib /usr/local/lib/libffi.la /usr/local/lib/pkgconfig/libffi.pc /usr/local/share/info/libffi.info However, it did not help, and the `./configure` still fails with the very same error message. What information can I give you to help me? What should I do to make it work? -- View this message in context: http://old.nabble.com/libffi-not-found-even-if-installed-in-default-path-tp33218407p33218407.html Sent from the Gnu - Guile - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
