OK. First question is: do you have *all* the build dependencies? You can get them all using "apt-get build-dep libsoqt-dev". Once that's done, if you still get this error, do investigate the config.log. If it is meaningless to you, please forward to me. I don't anticipate that there is a need to modify the configure script or anything else in the sources, except for debian/control. The latter should be modified to change the dependency line for libsoqt-dev. Cheers, -Steve -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
