Is it .so files it's looking for? .h files? what are the errors? It's pretty tough to help without those. Making a guess, you probably built it and installed it to /usr/local prefix. If you're trying to compile stuff that wants to link against the shared object files ( libavifile.so or some such ) figure out where that file is, and make sure the diretory it's in is listed in /etc/ld.so.conf and run "ldconfig" as root. Then try to compile the app again. If this don't help send us the error messages. > >What do I need to do to make this file know to the world. > >John Miller -- Ben Lutgens http://people.sistina.com/~blutgens/ Sistina Software Inc.
