So I went an tried to reproduce. It builds fine here with FC-6: $ ./configure [...] $ make [...] ar cru .libs/libmimedir.a dirlex.o dirsynt.o parse.o get.o dup.o free.o memmem.o add.o count.o del.o ranlib .libs/libmimedir.a creating libmimedir.la (cd .libs && rm -f libmimedir.la && ln -s ../libmimedir.la libmimedir.la) gcc -Wall -g -O2 -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -o test.o -c test.c /bin/sh ./libtool --mode=link gcc -Wall -g -O2 -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -o test test.o -L. libmimedir.la gcc -Wall -g -O2 -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -o .libs/test test.o -L/tmp/libmimedir-0.5 ./.libs/libmimedir.so -Wl,--rpath -Wl,/usr/local/lib creating test I can only reproduce it if I insert a non-existant inter-library dependency into the dependency_libs='' definition in the libtool archive or mess with $deplib. You could debug the ./libtool script, where the error message is in a single place. :-)
Thanks, Michael. I think that we are on two different levels here. I'm not a unix sysadmin nor a CS major, rather, simply an engineering student who needs to sync a Dell Axim with Kontact. Please excuse the ignorance, and know that I am willing to learn, but I really don't know what would be the next step in getting libmime-0.5 installed, as Synce depends on it.
