Installation Problems

I have Fedora Core 6 installed and most libraries (like opengl, openal, etc.) were missing. I installed most of them and ./configure comes quite far, but at the "vorbisfile-LIBRARY" the message:

checking for main in -lvorbisfile... no

pops up. I have downloaded the packet from the page, which was noted thereand it's supposed to work, but it doesn't. Any suggestions?

Where did you install the vorbis library on your system? You should be able to find

Code: Select all

/usr/include/vorbis/
/usr/include/ogg/
with some header files in them.

Report back, if you got any news, I will keep an eye on this thread :wink:

This seems to be a linker error, so most probably the header is found on your system, but the library is not.

Why that is so, I cannot tell you...

Some Questions:
1. Have you installed the official fedora core package, or installed all the libraries yourself??
2. Does the file /usr/lib/libvorbisfie.so (or something like it) exist?
3. Can you post the entire configure message, so that I can review this?
