cannot find libarary error
I am trying to install a software "W" which requires some non standard packages like "XYZ". I am installing XYZ as instructed in the related site using the following commands
./configure -C
make
make install
after installation of XYZ, I use the following commands to install W (as suggested in the related site):
env PKG_CONFIG_PATH="installation path for XYZ/lib/pkgconfig" cmake
make
however I get usr/bin/ld cannot find -lXYZ
.
I have also tried the following, which returned the same results:
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH="installation path for XYZ/lib"
when I am checking the library list associated with LD_LIBRARY_PATH
I see something like the following results:
................. libXYZ.la
................. libXYZ.so -> libXYZ.so.1.5.3
................. libXYZ.so.1 -> libXYZ.so.1.5.3
................. libXYZ.so.1.5.3
................. pkgconfig
where ....... are some info like date and other things
Does this problem is caused due to the version number of libraries or what? how can i solve it?
