Alex and all those helping/watching .. Thanks .. A bit more progress perhaps but still no development files for image magick woody debian. Remember this is a 2.4 kernel from about 2004
As requested.. Here is how my sources.list looks.. deb http://archive.debian.org/debian-archive/ woody main contrib non-free deb http://mirror.aarnet.edu.au/debian oldstable main contrib non-free deb http://mirror.linux.org.au/debian oldstable main contrib non-free deb http://mirrors.usc.edu/pub/linux/distributions/debian oldstable main contrib non-free Not sure about putting the etch main contrib non-free in there .. I dont want to upgrade to etch and suspect that intorducing etch into the cache would make for some odd things.. Maybee I am wrong I would agree that APT is usually very good at solving dependancy issues.. Ive taken some snapshots of some relavant stuff because the console does not allow me to copy/paste. This is the best I can do all converted from xwd files to gifs. The libmagick-dev issue is the killer I cant get past . See the snap shots at this URL http://www.users.on.net/~wavetel/temp/ Is it any good trying lesstif ? Bear in mind this is a live distro as Ive said previuosly. So if I stuff anything up then its easy to reboot and start again clean.. Ive been loading GNU-utils followed by GCC then APT for imagemagick libmotif libmotif-dev and then I configure xastir. Only 1 issue in the configure regards the shapelib missing and it looks like it goes with the internal version for shape. One thing I would like to confirm regards imagemagick development files. Cant I get them by going to sourceforge imagemagick and download the source and compile it ? Surely they are in there ? Ive found the source for imagemagick dating back before my system. Any comments ??
