Re: [Evolution-hackers] libcamel problems

[Not Zed <notzed ximian com>]

With the older versions of camel that install the libraries in an
evolution-specific directory, you have to either manually specify the
run-path to the linker, or use LD_LIBRARY_PATH.

For linking with gcc, you do something like

-Wl,-R/usr/lib64/evolution/2.0

Or just specify the full path to the .so file instead of using -lcamel.

For LD_LIBRARY_PATH you add something like

LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/usr/lib64/evolution/2.0

Basically the pkgconfig file isn't really correct, and camel wasn't
intended to be used outside of evolution (hence the private directory).

2.2 or newer installs it in /usr/lib*/ directly (although the pkgconfig
files may still be broken).
