X-BeenThere: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list List-Id: User questions List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Thu, 19 Mar 2009 23:50:03 -0000 Morning All: I've searched the archives and googled and generally applied what I found to no good effect. While installing the kde4 port, I got to libspectre. The libspectre port insists that I must have libgs to compile it. After a little research, I found that this is a ghostscript library. So I installed the ghostscript- 8.63 port. now, libspectre insists that I have to have libgs version >= 8.61. I checked /usr/local/lib and found the following: ls -l libgs.* libgs.so -> libgs.so.8.63 libgs.so8 -> libgs.so.8.63 libgs.so.8.63 So I'm guessing there's a problem in the configure script, but if there is, I can't find it. Then again, maybe I'm just missing something simple. Any ideas, anyone? IHN, Gene -- To everything there is a season, And a time to every purpose under heaven.
