Re: [poedit-users] poEdit compilation with Unicode/debug linked against GTK2

Dear Vaclav ,

Thank you very much for your answer. I thank you in advance for your time and
help.

I have the necessary wxGTK2 libraries installed with Unicode and Debug options
and linked against GTK2.

I told the rpm to rebuild with semistatic, but it fails during linking. Some
library is missing.

Under RedHat 9, static libdb is available from db4-devel, probably without
debug:

[root@linus root]# rpm -ql db4-devel
/usr/include/cxx_common.h
/usr/include/cxx_except.h
/usr/include/db.h
/usr/include/db4
/usr/include/db4/cxx_common.h
/usr/include/db4/cxx_except.h
/usr/include/db4/db.h
/usr/include/db4/db_185.h
/usr/include/db4/db_cxx.h
/usr/include/db_185.h
/usr/include/db_cxx.h
/usr/lib/libdb-4.0.a
/usr/lib/libdb-4.0.la
/usr/lib/libdb.so
/usr/lib/libdb_cxx-4.0.a
/usr/lib/libdb_cxx-4.0.la
/usr/lib/libdb_cxx.so

Any help or idea is welcome.

Cheers,
Jean-Michel
