I have been very unsuccesful in installin nALFS 1.2.1 and 1.2.2. I have checked over and over again and I have everything but libcurl.la. I have the latest Curl devel and Curl 7-11-1.1

I am running Fedora Core 2 as my host. Below is the './configure' and 'make' for nALFS. I didn't include the make install because that doesn't work and I am assuming that is because the 'make' never works. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I dodn't mention but, I think the problem is that I don' t have this libcurl.la but it doesn't seem to be included with curl 7-11-1.1. I tried installing previous versions but I rpm won't let me.

Thanks,

Ooops

Forgot that I already posted this issue!

Sorry

Thanks,
