I have not compiled Gnome myself but your Makefile seems to lack -lXpm even though it's needed.

Try fixing the Makefile and adding -lXpm after -ljpeg. Also, if the Xpm library is in /usr/local/lib you need -L/usr/local/lib before -lXpm. You probably knew it but I sometimes manage to forget the -L flag :) > ../gtk-xmhtml/_libs/libgtkxmhtml.so: undefined reference to > `XpmCreateXpmImageFromBuffer' > ../gtk-xmhtml/_libs/libgtkxmhtml.so: undefined reference to > `XpmFreeXpmInfo' > ../gtk-xmhtml/_libs/libgtkxmhtml.so: undefined reference to > `XpmGetErrorString' > ../gtk-xmhtml/_libs/libgtkxmhtml.so: undefined reference to > `XpmCreateXpmImageFromData' > ../gtk-xmhtml/_libs/libgtkxmhtml.so: undefined reference to > `XpmFreeXpmImage' > make[2]: *** [htmltest] Error 1 > > > I have gettext, guile, gtk, slib, xlockmore, libXpm, libjpeg, libpng, > zlib all installed either with deb packages or under /usr/local as > required by the README for gnome. ldconfig -v shows libXpm in it's list > and I have run ldconfig after I installed each of the above packages. > What am I missing?
