This could happen if you have (re)installed some libraries in /usr/local/lib but forgot to re-run the GIMP's configure script or autogen.sh if you use the CVS version. Or maybe you have installed the libraries correctly, but the autogen.sh script picked the wrong version because it picked the configuration from older pkgconfig *.pc files referring to the libraries in /usr/lib. In that case, you should set then environment variable ACLOCAL_FLAGS before running configure, as explained in the HACKING file (found in CVS or here: http://developer.gimp.org/HACKING) If you can solve the conflict between the files installed in /usr/lib and the ones installed in /usr/local/lib, then this linking problem should disappear. -Raphaël
