libwx_GTK and aMule


hi,
i have just managed to install aMule 1.2.6 compiling it from sources. to compile it correctly i had to install

- wxGTK-2.4.2.tar.gz
- libwx_base2.4_0-2.4.1-2mdk.i586.rpm

even if i have installed it when i run the command "amule" i get this error:

amule: error while loading shared libraries: libwx_gtk-2.4.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

what could it be?!?! i have installed wxGTK!!!! what does he want from me??!

thanks

Matteo

Mixing sources with rpm installs is not really a good idea,
unless you know what you are doing.

The message say you are missing a file: libwx_gtk-2.4.so.
Looking at rpmfind.net i saw that this can be provided by:
the package wxGTK-2.4.2-1.i386.rpm

Maybe you did not compile / install the wx sources correctly,
because this would obsolete the use of libwx_base2.4_0-2.4.1-2mdk.i586.rpm.

Looks like a mixup, better get this clean before trying any further.

Then again, maybe the install from sources put the libs some out off rreach from ld_lib_path.
