Oops. Thank-you for pointing that out, my mistake. However, I still cannot find any libsvn*.a files anywhere on the drive.
As described in my first mail, there is a file I can see with the extension 'LA' which is a text file. It states that the libraries will be built to /usr/local/lib but they don't seem to be there after I execute make. ./configure --disable-shared --enable-static make Thanks, Ian.
