I am unable to compile tqt3 on Slackware 15.0 64-bit.
The build always fails with:
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lpng
Yesterday I thought I resolved the problem by disabling gcc visibility. Today that trick
is futile.
libpng-1.6.37 is installed.
Any ideas?
I hate posts like this.
I tried on an older slower computer. No failure. That was good enough to
trigger something in this old brain. I remembered yesterday I
reinstalled the libpng package on the problematic computer, which is a
VM. I restored the VM snapshot and repeated the reinstall. This time
tqt3 built.
The gcc visibility thing probably was a red herring.
