problem linking 'pango-1.14.4'

[Sergei Steshenko <sergstesh yahoo com>]

Hello All,

as I wrote recently, I'm checking my tool (see signature) on a different distro -
originally it was developed on Mandriva, now I'm checking it on MEPIS, which is
kind of Ubuntu.

'configure' for 'pango-1.14.4' completed with 0 status, however, 'make' fails; the
failing command is:

"

".

Seeing this I can't quite figure out where the problem is.

Is it the wrong (something missing in it) 'gcc g -O2 -Wall ...' command line ?

Is it defective /usr/X11R6/lib/libXrender.a ?

Should the latter be scanned more than once during linking ?

Should 'configure' have caught this problem ?

On Mandriva this all works fine.

Thanks,
  Sergei.
