It's a 2-part app, part one is the library, it installed fine after I symlinked wxgtk2-2.85-config to wx-config. Make install then put a bunch of stuff in /usr/local/include/libroadnav, and libroadnav.a into /usr/local/lib Then running configure on the main app complains that it can't find Map.h, which is right there where the lib's makefile installed it. I thought it was a permissions problem, but I can't see how. I've run all the commands as a sudoer, and the permissions/owner/etc on libroadnav look just like all the other libs/includes... Steve
