I have built and installed libid3 (3.8.3) in both /usr/lib and /usr/local/lib
root:# ldconfig -p | grep id3 libid3.so (libc6) => /usr/lib/libid3.so libid3.so (libc6) => /usr/local/lib/libid3.so libid3-3.8.so.3 (libc6) => /usr/lib/libid3-3.8.so.3 libid3-3.8.so.3 (libc6) => /usr/local/lib/libid3-3.8.so.3 and have tried to build easytag to no avail john:~/src/easytag-1.1$ ./configure ... checking for library containing ID3Tag_Link... no configure: error: id3lib not found and just for fun: john:/usr/lib$ nm libid3.so | grep ID3Tag_Link 00026cfc T ID3Tag_Link 00026d90 T ID3Tag_LinkWithFlags john:/usr/lib$ nm libid3.a | grep ID3Tag_Link 000003bc T ID3Tag_Link 00000410 T ID3Tag_LinkWithFlags clearly both .so and .a versions of libid3 on my system actually contain this ID3Tag_Link thing so what are they looking for?
