Configuration of ocaml 3.10.0 fails to link graphics library

Configuration of ocaml 3.10.0 fails to link graphics library

[Byron Hale]

I am trying to get ocaml 3.10 to configure on an AMD64 system with Suse
Linux 10.3.

The only problem is that the graph library, which is present in the
source, has no link
provisions.  Suggestions?

Thanks,

Byron Hale

What do you mean, that the configure script doesn't build the graphics library ?
You may have to use the -x11include and -x11lib options of configure:
IIRC I had to use -x11lib /usr/lib64 on my system.

Thank you, Oliver.

I do not expect "./configure" to compile Ocaml.
However, it gave me a message that
there was no link information for the graphics library.

I will use your suggestion and see what happens! :)

Oliver,

Your suggestion worked.

I got a full configuration and subsequent install.

Thanks again.
