Christian/Paul, Thanks to both of you for the help. I followed the wiki page at: http://wiki.ekiga.org/index.php/Compile_your_own_SVN_version_of_Ekiga_on_Ubuntu And ran autogen.sh with - - prefix=/usr - - sysconfdir=/etc/ exactly as described in the wiki. I tried the command Paul suggested: cd /usr/bin export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib And it completed without error, but I still get the following error in terminal no matter where I try it from. spencer spencer-desktop:/usr/bin$ ekiga The program 'ekiga' is currently not installed. You can install it by typing: sudo apt-get install ekiga bash: ekiga: command not found spencer spencer-desktop:/usr/bin$ ./ekiga bash: ./ekiga: No such file or directory As I'm sure is painfully obvious already, I come from primarily an MS/Windows background and am still pretty lost in Linux/Ubuntu. > Date: Sun, 21 Jun 2009 00:26:34 +0200 > From: pflanze gmx ch > To: ekiga-list gnome org > Subject: Re: [Ekiga-list] Unable to compile 3.2.4 on Ubuntu Jaunty > > PS. > > > I followed > > the wiki to compile the SVN snapshot, > > since Ekiga, as far I can see, is being tracked in Git, not SVN, the question also coming up is which packages have you compiled and installe: ptlib, opal, *and also* ekiga itself? > > > But when I try to start Ekiga from terminal, it tells me Ekiga's not > > installed. > > And you did't try to start it from the same shell in which you previously started the pre-packaged Ekiga? Since if you did, the shell would probably have remembered the location of the previous install, then if you run "ekiga" again, say that it's missing. Rehash the shell's file cache (shell specific) or simply start a new shell (/terminal). And/or use the full path, like /usr/local/bin/ekiga or accordant to your configuration settings. > > Christian. > > -- > GRATIS für alle GMX-Mitglieder: Die maxdome Movie-FLAT! > Jetzt freischalten unter http://portal.gmx.net/de/go/maxdome01 > _______________________________________________ > ekiga-list mailing list > ekiga-list gnome org > http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/ekiga-list Microsoft brings you a new way to search the web.
