Trying to install Superkaramba getting errors
 
Hi all,
I'm running Slackware 10 and I'm trying to install Superkaramba and I keep getting errors when I run "Make". Here are the errors:

libtool: link: cannot find the library `/usr/X11R6/lib/libfontconfig.la'
make[3]: *** [superkaramba] Error 1
make[3]: Leaving directory `/home/steve/superkaramba-0.34/src'
make[2]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/steve/superkaramba-0.34/src'
make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/steve/superkaramba-0.34'
make: *** [all] Error 2
root@hotrod:/home/steve/superkaramba-0.34#

I did a search for libfontconfig.la and I found the file right where it's supposed to be. So... what's wrong? Why can't it finish the "make" so I can "make install"?

Any help would be awesome.

PS. I have tried to install some other styles and window decorations and I am getting the same error. Any thoughts??


Thanks,
Chevy

It isn't named anything like "libfontconfig.la.1" or anything, is it?

No it's libfontconfig.la and it's in the /usr/lib directory.

I know it's a little bit off , but try installing the Superkaramba RPM file.

I know this is old, but for the record, just create a symlink.

You can do it by typing this as root:
ln /usr/lib/libfontconfig.la /usr/X11R6/lib/libfontconfig.la
