Ooops, you're right, sorry. (I didn't check that test over other libraries too)

Well, the snip you posted doesn't use gsl_multifit_fdfsolver_iterate.

After 'apt-get source gsl', I've found that this function is used in
multifit/test.c. I've compiled it on my system, and it runs. Weird :s

The configure is not that harsh:

valid_gsl=yes
AC_CHECK_LIB(gslcblas,main,LIBS="-lgslcblas $LIBS"; BASELIBS="-lgslcblas 
$BASELIBS")
AC_CHECK_LIB(gsl,gsl_multifit_fdfsolver_iterate,BASELIBS="-lgsl 
$BASELIBS",valid_gsl=no)
AC_CHECK_HEADER(gsl/gsl_multifit_nlin.h,,valid_gsl=no)

if test "x$valid_gsl" = "xno"
then
        AC_MSG_ERROR(Please install ...)
fi


Have you got any idea why configure fails? Those lines seem fine to me.

I'm gonna google for it.

Thank you for the reply,
David
