/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lecat


Hello all
I'm trying to compile Gate_v6.2. But at the end of the configuration I'm getting the following error after tying the make command:

.....
[100%] Building CXX object CMakeFiles/Gate.dir/source/general/src/GateMiscFunctions.cc.o
[100%] Building CXX object CMakeFiles/Gate.dir/source/general/src/GateApplicationMgrMessenger.cc.o
[100%] Building CXX object CMakeFiles/Gate.dir/source/general/src/GateObjectChildListMessenger.cc.o
Linking CXX executable Gate
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lecat
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make[2]: ** [Gate] Erro 1
make[1]: ** [CMakeFiles/Gate.dir/all] Erro 2
make: ** [all] Erro 2

How do I fix this problem?
Hope this helps someone...

I guess you will have to build libecat :
