strk,<br>Thanks for your response to my ./configure woes. I tried your suggestion and these are the results: <br>test !-f "/usr/bin/geos-config" yields <br>test flex --version "/usr/bin/geos-config"<br>
bash: test: --version: binary operator expected<br><br>But if I <span style="font-style: italic;">locate</span> geos-config it turns up in /usr/bin/<br><br>So, if I ./configure once again, I get to the "checking for geos-config" section and I get
<br>.<br>.<br>.<br>checking for geos-config... /usr/bin/geos-config<br>Usage: geos-config [OPTIONS]<br>Options:<br> [--prefix]<br> [--version]<br> [--libs]<br> [--cflags]<br> [--includes]<br> [--jtsport]
<br><br>Is it looking for /usr/lib/libgeos.so.2.1.4? Or...?<br><br>Thanks again,<br>Steven<br><br> _________________________________<br>Date: Tue, 7 Nov 2006 09:39:44 +0100<br>From: <a onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)" href="mailto:strk@refractions.net">
