[Digikam-devel] compile from svn problem

[Arnd Baecker]

Hi,

my usual install from svn
(using the script from http://www.digikam.org/?q=download/svn)
does not work.

The problem seems to be libjasper:

checking for jas_init in -ljasper... no
configure: WARNING: digiKam requires libjasper >= 1.7.0
configure: WARNING: digiKam requires libjasper >= 1.7.0; digiKam will not
be compiled.
configure: creating ./config.status
wrong input (flag != 4) at admin/conf.change.pl line 117, <> line 1261.
config.status: creating digikam/utilities/hotplug/digikam-download.desktop

However, libjasper is installed
digikam/lib $ ls -l | grep jasper
-rw-r--r-- 1 abaecker abaecker 1266404 Mar  1 14:51 libjasper.a
-rwxr-xr-x 1 abaecker abaecker     817 Mar  1 14:51 libjasper.la

and does contain jas_init:

nm libjasper.a | grep jas_init
jas_init.o:
00000010 T jas_init
[ptpcp3] /home/scratch/abaecker/SOFTWARE/digikam/lib $

What puzzles me is:
- all the other stuff (like exiv2) is in the same directory
  and is recognized by configure.
- this did not happen a few days ago
  (hmm, I did a small update on my machine, but this should not
   affect this ...)

How can I debug such configure problem in a systematic way?

Best, Arnd
