Im having trouble compiling this game - freelords 0.2.2 i have downloaded and compiled all of the necessary dependencies: SDL 1.2.5, paragui 1.0.3 & libsigc++ 1.2.4 they all installed without problems but the problem is when i try to compile freelords i get this error msg:
[root@localhost freelords-0.2.2]# ./configure

*** Could not run PARAGUI test program, checking why...

*** that the run-time linker is not finding PARAGUI or finding the wrong
*** version of PARAGUI. If it is not finding PARAGUI, you'll need to set your
*** LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable, or edit /etc/ld.so.conf to point
*** to the installed location Also, make sure you have run ldconfig if that

***
*** If you have an old version installed, it is best to remove it, although
*** you may also be able to get things to work by modifying LD_LIBRARY_PATH
configure: error: *** ParaGUI version 1.0.0 not found!

i have edited the LD_LIBRARY_PATH and ld.so.conf but there is no difference. the only progress i have made is to use the command "./configure --disable-paraguitest" it will then configure but when i go to "make" the program i get this error:
[root@localhost freelords-0.2.2]# make

im really stuck ive looked everywhere but there is very little documentation anywhere on this, it is probably something really simple i have overlooked.
any help would be much appreciated
thanks in advance. matt

no idea what paragui is but it may well need a devel pacakge for it to allow programs to be compiled using it. you should heva e config.log file to read to tell you what is going wrong. also check the test performed in configure itself, and see if it makes sense to you.

this is part of the config.log file but im not too sure what to make of the errors.
