Re: [Gretl-users] Gretl install under SuSE 9.0
Hello!
After having skipped the libpng part, the configure script failed at libxml.
I checked it, and I have both libxml (version: 1.8.17-274) and libxml2
(version: 2.5.10-32). Even I checked the provided files of the before
mentioned packages for libxml-2.0.pc, it isn't between them.
libxml provides:
libxml.so.1
libxml2 provides:
libxml2.so.2
/usr/bin/xmlcatalog
/usr/bin/xmllint
By the way, I don't know whether I need to use the --without-gnome option
if I am useing KDE.
Concerning libpng, I don't have any .pc files, but I have libpng12.so.0
file. Is this the one you tought to?
Best!
Viktor

To get gretl to configure, you can do
configure --disable-png-comments
Actually, this probably won't hurt anything since the "png comments"
code works only if you're using my own special build of gnuplot.
In gretl 1.2.9 (to be released shortly) I have amended the configure
check for libpng so that it should work on more systems. (In your
case you may have a file libpng12.pc, which would do instead; I'll use
that if it's available, but also test for libpng even if there's no
pkg-config files for it.)
