If you already have it, you may have it installed in a strange place, or you may need to run /sbin/ldconfig. If you don't have it, I can download it for you. Shall I retrieve and build LibAST now (y/n)? y configure: error: Fatal: libast not found. ========================= And I installed from a tarball the package called: libast-0.4.tar.gz ========================= Then when it failed again with the same error went to search for where anything like libast existed at and got: [root@yoga /usr/ports/x11/eterm]-> find /usr/ -name "libast*" -print /usr/local/bin/libast-config /usr/local/bin/libast-test /usr/local/include/libast.h /usr/local/lib/libast.so.1 /usr/local/lib/libast.so /usr/local/lib/libast.la /usr/local/lib/libast.a /usr/local/libast-0.4.tar.gz /usr/local/libast-0.4 /usr/local/libast-0.4/libast-config.in /usr/local/libast-0.4/libast.spec.in /usr/local/libast-0.4/libast.h /usr/local/libast-0.4/libast_internal.h /usr/local/libast-0.4/test/.libs/libast-test /usr/local/libast-0.4/test/libast-test /usr/local/libast-0.4/libast-config /usr/local/libast-0.4/libast.spec /usr/local/libast-0.4/.libs/libast.so.1 /usr/local/libast-0.4/.libs/libast.so /usr/local/libast-0.4/.libs/libast.a /usr/local/libast-0.4/.libs/libast.lai /usr/local/libast-0.4/.libs/libast.la /usr/local/libast-0.4/libast.la ========================= So, I figured I'd try and help a little and ran the command: ldconfig -m /usr/local/lib And for the hell of it after that failed again: ldconfig -m /usr/local/libast-0.4 ========================= So, can anyone help out here a little as to how to get Eterm installed on FreeBSD-4.5 ?
