Re: [Evolution] Compiling evolution-data-server-2.24.2 error

Pat,

Seriously appreciate the help.  I am using the export config path and not helping. IF I manually change the 
e-msgport.c file to look for nspr.h in /usr/include/nspr4/nspr.h then it finds it and compiles, but the 
linking fails with....

./.libs/libedataserver-1.2.so: undefined reference to `PR_GetErrorText'
./.libs/libedataserver-1.2.so: undefined reference to `PR_GetErrorTextLength'
./.libs/libedataserver-1.2.so: undefined reference to `PR_Write'
./.libs/libedataserver-1.2.so: undefined reference to `PR_Read'
./.libs/libedataserver-1.2.so: undefined reference to `PR_CreatePipe'
./.libs/libedataserver-1.2.so: undefined reference to `PR_Close'
./.libs/libedataserver-1.2.so: undefined reference to `PR_GetError'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make[2]: *** [test-source-list] Error 1

Any thoughts on this?  

Thanks,

Tony

Have you set and exported PKG_CONFIG_PATH? You should do this first (and
do everything else from the same Shell session of course). I use:

export
PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/opt/evolution/lib/pkgconfig:/usr/share/pkgconfig:/usr/lib/pkgconfig

This is what I use for configuring e-d-s:

./configure --prefix=/opt/evolution --enable-nss --with-openldap --with-nspr-include=/usr/include/nspr4

There are full instructions in the README file in the evolution source
directory (though not in the e-d-s directory last time I looked).

You can also use Paul Smith's script
(http://mad-scientist.us/evolution.html) which builds from SVN, but it's
designed for Debian and I use Fedora.
