configure: error: *** libmcrypt was not found
Posted: Fri Jan 13, 2006 11:18 am
I was tring to install libmcrypt-2.5.7 and mcrypt-2.6.4 on RHLE4 but failed.
I followed the instruction downloaded from WWW.
After made install of libmcrypt-2.5.7, there was a error shown on the screen when I tried to install mcrypt-2.6.4:
...
...
checking for libmcrypt-config... /usr/local/bin/libmcrypt-config
checking for libmcrypt - version >= 2.5.0... no
*** Could not run libmcrypt test program, checking why...
*** The test program compiled, but did not run. This usually means
*** that the run-time linker is not finding LIBMCRYPT or finding the wrong
*** version of LIBMCRYPT. If it is not finding LIBMCRYPT, you'll need to set your
*** LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable, or edit /etc/ld.so.conf to point
*** to the installed location Also, make sure you have run ldconfig if that
*** is required on your system
***
*** If you have an old version installed, it is best to remove it, although
*** you may also be able to get things to work by modifying LD_LIBRARY_PATH
***
configure: error: *** libmcrypt was not found
I have checked /usr/local/lib/libmcrypt, but couldnt find a file. I think there must be some problems during installing libmcrypt-2.5.7. Is it normal?
Please help me out with this problem. Many thanks
