gtk+-2.0 installation error due to jasper

[Peng Yu <pengyu ut gmail com>]

Hi,

I have the following error messages. Can somebody let know how to fix it?

--------------------------------------------------------------------

I installed jasper-1.900.1 by the following commands. I get the .a
file but not the .so file.
./configure --prefix=mydir
make
make install

If I run the following command in the directory gtk+-2.14.7
./configure --prefix=mydir

I then run 'make'. I get the following error:
mydir/lib/libjasper.a: could not read symbols: Bad value
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

Alternatively, if I run the following command in the directory gtk+-2.14.7
./configure --prefix=mydir --without-libjasper

I then run 'make'. I get the following error
libtool: link: `gtktearoffmenuitem.lo' is not a valid libtool object
make[4]: *** [libgtk-x11-2.0.la] Error 1

Regards,
Peng
