This is just a library's problem, not gc.h's.

How about;

# ldconfig

Then,

$ ./configure --prefix=/usr

Best Regards,

Thanks Masaru, I had already tried to do that (although I'm not sure I tried correctly). I have tried: 12190 libtool --mode=install install /usr/lib/libgc.a /home/david/linux/apps/inkscape/dcrlib/libgc.a 12193 libtool --mode=install install /usr/lib/libgc.so.1.0.2 /home/david/linux/apps/inkscape/dcrlib/libgc.so.1.0.2 I then created the symlinks like are in /usr/lib: 08:22 alchemy:~/linux/apps/inkscape> l dcrlib/ total 1336 drwxr-xr-x 2 david dcr 4096 2009-07-31 01:20 ./ drwxr-xr-x 13 david dcr 4096 2009-07-31 02:00 ../ -rw-r--r-- 1 david dcr 849284 2009-07-31 01:14 libgc.a -rwxr-xr-x 1 david dcr 700 2009-07-31 01:20 libgc.la* lrwxrwxrwx 1 david dcr 14 2009-07-31 01:18 libgc.so -> libgc.so.1.0.2* lrwxrwxrwx 1 david dcr 14 2009-07-31 01:18 libgc.so.1 -> libgc.so.1.0.2* -rwxr-xr-x 1 david dcr 491964 2009-07-31 01:17 libgc.so.1.0.2* But that didn't get me anywhere.

Oh, have you?

That why I say I think I have and I showed what I have done. My understanding is that libtool did exactly what you suggested. Though I say I "think" I have because my knowledge about all of the configure and compile intricacies on large projects is shaky at best.

Anyway, have you checked the log file of configure?

Ahah! We are getting close. The failure on opensuse 11.0 is: configure:10342: ./conftest ./conftest: error while loading shared libraries: libgc.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory configure:10345: $? = 127 configure: program exited with status 127

In my case, I could compile inkscape-0.47pre1.tar.bz2 without any probs. But, mine is openSUSE 11.1.

I think this is the big issue. openSuSE 11.0 isn't handling the libraries right. Like I said, I built the very same packages (gc and inkscape from svn) on another archlinux box simply by rsync'ing the gc.tar.gz file and the inkscape directory to the archlinux box and the running ./configure --prefix=/usr, make, make install on gc and ./autogen.sh ./configure --prefix=/usr, make, make install on inkscape. All built without *any* problem. So I know that the problem is the libgc.so.1 library config issue on the 11.0 box. The question is how do I fix it? or where do I put additional compile flags or link options to get around it? How do I tell ldconfig to fix it?? -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.

How about this;

Have you run 'ldconfig'? What's the output of

/sbin/ldconfig -p | grep libgc

?

Dave, Sorry there was a break in this thread - reality called.

Yes, that's what got me thinking that inkscape may think something is old on my opensuse 11.0 box. The arch box is running on kernel 2.6.30 while 11.0 is running on 2.6.25.
