I just found out what to do....I searched online and found that the packages DO install the headers Ekiga wanted, but in a default folder, whereas I should be installing them with this added on the end: --prefix=/usr<br>When I did that, everything went well...sorry for the confusion, it was because I was ignorant of the installation path (and because of my general linux ignorance).
<br>Thanks for trying to understand my nonsense!<br><br><div><span class="gmail_quote">On 10/4/07, <b class="gmail_sendername">David Corking</b> <<a href="mailto:lists@dcorking.com">lists@dcorking.com</a>> wrote:</span>
