configure: error: libEQ.a not found. Be sure libEQ.a is already installed in /usr/local/lib or /usr/lib.
I have libEQ.a copied into both directories now..

Any advice?

Thanks

remove from both dirs and only place it in one. it should only appear once in your LIBRARY path (ie, it CAN be in /usr/lib AND /root... but not in /usr/lib and /lib).

also, make sure it is the most current... maybe try running "ldconfig" before hand, but having it in ONE place and being most current should be suffecient.

I have the same problem, I have it just in usr/lib and I dl the libEQ.a from the site in the README.libEQ and I dont get the same md5sum as the new one posted, I get
3c99abc9855cee150c1b3fb411614db dated mon the 6th. Where is the new one?

still getting same problem

I have correct libEQ.a according to the md5sum and it's now only in the /usr/local/lib directory.

Where did you get yours from?

try doing "make distclean" or "make clean" before re-running the "make -f Makefile.dist && ./configure" it might be caching it. also, be sure it really IS only in that once spot.

i like "slocate" (do "slocate -u &" to update the db, then just use "slocate libeq.a" after it is done updating). its like a find -name but much faster cause it does a "find /" then stores it in a txt file which is much faster to search than your hard drive repeatedly.

i sorta did the same thing, thought i had downloaded it to /usr/lib but i actually had put it in /root. shaddup :)

It worked when I DL the file from my linux box, and didint work when I DL it from my winbloz and copied it to my FTP, then got it fom my linux box. weird

I have libEQ.a in /root and /usr/local/lib only and I am still getting a problem finding it

Am I forgetting something about LIB pathing?
