Check the path passed to --with-pdflib The path is just fine: '--with-pdflib=/usr/local/lib' configure needs to find TWO things: #1 the "lib" file which is libpdf.so in /usr/local/lib #2 the "header" file which is libpdf.h in /usr/local/include If you tell configure to look inside of /usr/local/lib, it can't *find* the libpdf.h file, because it's not inside that directory, it's inside a directory parallel to that. If you tell configure to look in /usr/local, it "knows" to check in /usr/local/lib for the .so file, and in /usr/local/include for the .h file, and it finds everything it needs. It won't, because his headers are in /usr/local/lib, and not in

/usr/include/header I don't know if the following will work, but you could try adding the an include dir to CFLAGS: export CFLAGS="-I /usr/local/lib" *note that this will destroy currently set CFLAGS. And then try configuring with --with-pdflib=/usr/local Tijnema
