#17 build and install issues -- freebsd 4.9

[Anonymous]

hello,

just a little feedback for you. tried installing klearnnotes2-1.1 under
freebsd 4.9 with kde-3.2.0 currently installed.

====>> CONFIGURE:

./configure yields the following error msgs:
[snip]
checking for libpng... no
checking for libjpeg6b... no
checking for libjpeg... no
configure: WARNING:
There is an installation error in jpeg support. You seem to have only
one
of either the headers _or_ the libraries installed. You may need to
either
provide correct --with-extra-... options, or the development package of
libjpeg6b. You can get a source package of libjpeg from http://www.ijg.
org/
Disabling JPEG support.

Good - your configure finished. Start make now

>locate libpng
/usr/local/include/libpng
/usr/local/include/libpng/png.h
/usr/local/include/libpng/pngconf.h
/usr/local/lib/libpng.a
/usr/local/lib/libpng.so
/usr/local/lib/libpng.so.5

>locate libjpeg6b
[no result]

>locate libjpeg
/usr/local/lib/libjpeg.a
/usr/local/lib/libjpeg.so
/usr/local/lib/libjpeg.so.9

Hi,
Thanks for your feedback!

1. configure problems:
First of all, see 'configure --help'. In your case running
'configure --with-extra-includes=/usr/local/include
--with-extra-libs=/usr/local/lib' should help. BTW: these
are standard locations for libs in many distros so, yes, we
will consider this a bug and try to change in next release
(so that 'configure' worked out-of-the-box).

2. aclocal-1.7 warning:
It shouldn't be important, the configure script shipped in
the package should be up to date. Just ignore the warning.

3. autoconf error:
Which version of autoconf do you have installed? (You can
run 'autoconf --version'). I believe, the newest is 2.59.
You can get its source from
http://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf/. I'm sorry but we
cannot support every old version of system software. Please,
install newer autoconf [it is a 908kB download though :(].

Please, let me know if the 'configure' options and
installing newer autoconf helps. I hope it does.

Thanks again for your report. I hope you will enjoy using
kln2. :)

Best regards,
Marek
