Brothers, > Linux/PowerPC Project) To compile you need header files, not just the actual libraries. The header files are found in the *-devel packages. So you would need both wxGTK and wxGTK-devel. When you install and run a precompiled package you don't need the headers, only the libraries. However, in the case of roadnav I don't see that it requires wxGTK: [root@phoenix ~]# rpm -qa | grep -i wx wxPython-2.8.4.0-2.fc8 wxGTK-2.8.4-6.fc8 compat-wxGTK26-2.6.4-0.8 wxGTK-gl-2.8.4-6.fc8 Then, one by one: [root@phoenix ~]# rpm -q --whatrequires compat-wxGTK26 no package requires compat-wxGTK26 [root@phoenix ~]# rpm -q --whatrequires wxPython tovid-0.31-3.fc8 [root@phoenix ~]# rpm -q --whatrequires wxGTK wxGTK-gl-2.8.4-6.fc8 [root@phoenix ~]# rpm -q --whatrequires wxGTK-gl no package requires wxGTK-gl And in fact if I do rpm -q --requires roadnav again I don't see anything about wx. At any rate, I have it installed on F8 and it crashes when I try to set an address. It worked fine in F7. -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
