XFE 1.40 released - but can't compile :(

Hi there! XFE 1.37 is included in the SliTaz distro - but a few days ago the new version finally appeared. - http://roland65.free.fr/xfe/

I've been trying unsuccessfully to get it work but to no avail.

I installed the Fox libraries but when I "./configure" the process stops here:

checking for png_read_info in -lpng... yes

checking png.h usability... no

checking png.h presence... no

checking for png.h... no

configure: error: "png.h not found"

Also, doing a "tazpkg convert" on the .deb release doesn't work.

Can you guys tell me where I get it wrong?

I like the Tux Commander (the file manager I'm using now) but XFE without the bugs of 1.37 would be even better

@Bellard

xfe-1.40 configure.ac looks for /usr/include/freetype2/config/ftheader.h

freetype-dev-2.4.11:           /usr/include/freetype2/freetype/config/ftheader.h

The solution on my computer:

ln -s /usr/include/freetype2/freetype/config /usr/include/freetype2

@mojo - still didn't work.

Same error.

Also, png.h is in my computer in the following locations

/usr/include/png.h

/usr/include/firefox-17.0.11esr/png.h

/usr/include/libpng12/png.h

Where else should I move it?

The configure file says this:

  LIBS="-lpng $LIBS"

else

  as_fn_error $? "\"libPNG not found\"" "$LINENO" 5

fi

ac_fn_cxx_check_header_mongrel "$LINENO" "png.h" "ac_cv_header_png_h" "$ac_includes_default"

if test "x$ac_cv_header_png_h" = xyes; then :

else

  as_fn_error $? "\"png.h not found\"" "$LINENO" 5

fi

Maybe should I change where it says "lpng" to "libpng12"?

Thank you mojo! You're a god. One day you guys should teach me some of these things so I won't bother you with my stupid requests.

Edit: Obviously, thread solved.
