Hello

I'm trying to compile a program at the terminal prompt in Jaguar.

The "configure" utility doesn't find some new libraries that were installed successfully but in a new path. This new libraries are requirement for the program to compilate.

Maybe one needs to add a new path (-I), but I do not know in which file should be added or how to set this parameter from the csh

Could anyone please give me some orientation on this thema?

Kind Regards

Typically the configure script will support switches to tell it additional libraries/directories to include.

Without knowing the program you're trying to compile there's no way anyone can say for sure. Read the INSTALL document or the configure script itself to see.

Alternatively, why not put the libraries in the standard locations so that you don't have non-standard locations or dependencies?

Correct as always.

do './configure --help' and see if
there are command line options to
specify non-standard locations.

For example, you might see:
--with-tcl-include
--with-tcl-library

and you'd use it as:
--with-tcl-library=/some/odd/place/for/lib

If the library is not in the path you can always use the environment variable DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH to search other directories...

export DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH=mypath:$DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH

I suppose this might help you. (?) Assuming the library is built with .dylib

Thank you for the answers

After installing Fink and then installing with it the libraries needed, the package configure utility created with success the needed files that helped compile the application
