Hello all,
First off, thanks to all who contribute both your time and patience.
Without you, choice would become a meaningless concept. I have installed
"kicq" on Linux 6.1 (Mandrake). I have completed the "confiqure,"
"complile," and "install." I have copied all files to the appropriate
directories. I was given this message, copied at the bottom of this
mail, and I am a bit uncertain about what it is telling me to do. I can
see I need some kind of '"environment variable," and something entered
into my "path." Am I to to a "ln," and do I run the link with a switch,
"LLIBDIR?" I have been looking at man pages, and I have been back on the
kicq page but uncertainty lingers. Any help rendered would be greatly
appreciated.
Thanks,
Craig Woods

Libraries have been installed in:
/usr/local/lib
To link against installed libraries in a given directory, LIBDIR,
you must use the `-LLIBDIR' flag during linking.
You will also need to do at least one of the following:
- add LIBDIR to the `LD_LIBRARY_PATH' environment variable during
execution
- add LIBDIR to the `LD_RUN_PATH' environment variable
during linking
- use the `-Wl,--rpath -Wl,LIBDIR' linker flag
- have your system administrator add LIBDIR to `/etc/ld.so.conf'
See any operating system documentation about shared libraries for more
information, such as the ld(1) and ld.so(8) manual pages.
