Are you talking about linking of programs against libicapapi.so, or the linking of libicapapi.so itself? If you're talking about linking the programs against libicapapi.so, then adding -lz should not be needed, unless the programs use zlib function calls directly. But if only libicapapi.so is the zlib user, then there should normally be no need to link the programs with -lz (except in static linking scenarios, of course). Did you verify that the paranoid path checking was not complaining? > Any suggestion for the comment text to explain the AUTORECONF? Just explains that it fixes stuff and which stuff :) Thomas -- Thomas Petazzoni, CTO, Free Electrons Embedded Linux, Kernel and Android engineering http://free-electrons.com
