Description Martin Schmettow 2008-04-01 21:26:28 UTC

Version:           0.1.5 (using KDE 3.5.8)
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages
Compiler:          gcc 4.1.3 20070929 (prerelease) (Ubuntu 4.1.2-16ubuntu2) 
OS:                Linux

Compiling kipi-plugins from source configure seems to not check for libltdl being installed.
make then fails with:

Comment 1 Rex Dieter 2008-04-01 21:33:15 UTC

This is (most likely) a system/distro issue.  

Notice the link line you posted makes no mention of /usr/lib/libltdl.la ?  Means, that one of your system libtool archives contains a (possibly erroneous) reference to it.

Comment 2 Achim Bohnet 2008-04-01 21:39:44 UTC

I doubt that it's a direct requirement of kipi-plugins.  KDE comes
with it's own copy of ltdl.   I assume that kipiplugin_kameraklient.la
reverences other .la files that require ltld.la.

I assume libgphoto2 we hand big problems before because KDE ltdl and
ltdl used by libgphoto version didn't like each other.

P.S. FWIW: in case you're running gutsy/i386 you'll find kipi-plugins backport
at http://www.mpe.mpg.de/~ach/kubuntu/gutsy/Pkgs.php.  And soon for other
archs https://launchpad.net/~allee/+archive (working on it right now)
