This is probably a very common question/issue, but as far as I know, I 
have done everything to help the configure script find the library, I 
have this output:

Invoked: ./configure --prefix=/usr/local --with-pwlib-dir=/usr/local 
--with-opal-dir=/usr/local

Using config source xml:merged:/etc/gconf/gconf.xml.defaults for schema 
installation

Operating system is Solaris (OpenSolaris - Solaris 11).

Out of desperation, I tried this (not normally needed as other software 
doesn't have trouble finding things):

bash-3.00$ export LDFLAGS="-L/usr/local/lib:/usr/lib 
-R/usr/local/lib:/usr/lib"

and tried again.. same error. Opal didnt have any problems finding my 
libraries in /usr/local, why is ekiga having the issue?

Any ideas what the problem is?
