Hello all,
I am trying to compile GTK+-2.6.1 on a debian linux distribution, and I have
the following linking problem. Basically ./configure gives me the following
error
checking for jpeg_destroy_decompress in -ljpeg... no
configure: WARNING: *** JPEG loader will not be built (JPEG library not
found) ***
configure: error:
if I look more closely to the config.log output :
jecar@debian:/src/gtk+-2.6.1$ more config.log | grep jpeg
$ ./configure --with-libjpeg --with-gnu-ld
configure:25848: checking for jpeg_destroy_decompress in -ljpeg
configure:25878: i686-pc-linux-gnu-gcc -o conftest -g -O2 -Wall conftest.c
-ljpeg >&5
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -ljpeg
| char jpeg_destroy_decompress ();
| jpeg_destroy_decompress ();
*** --without-libjpeg to configure but some programs using GTK+ may
ac_cv_lib_jpeg_jpeg_destroy_decompress=
However, libjpeg exist on my system (I compiled and installed it) and it
resides in /usr/lib the following readelf confirms that the function
ecar@debian:/src/gtk+-2.6.1$ readelf -a /usr/lib/libjpeg.so.62 | grep
jpeg_destroy_decompress
75: 0000c0fc 35 FUNC GLOBAL DEFAULT 10 jpeg_destroy_decompress
jecar@debian:/src/gtk+-2.6.1$
jpeg_destroy_decompress does in fact exist. How come configure won't find
it... /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -ljpeg....
I have also done ldconfig and tried to specify the LDFLAGS and it doesn't
change anything
Anyone has the answer ? -> probably a follow-up to
http://mail.gnome.org/archives/gtk-list/2003-September/msg00273.html
thanks in advance
Jean Olivier
