[Liblas-devel] ARSF LiDAR Analysis GUI

Thu Aug 23 07:57:57 PDT 2012

I copied the .hpp files into /usr/local/include/laslib and the
compilation went further.  Any suggestions?

Now I end up with errors:

/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -llaslib
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -ljemalloc
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make[1]: *** [liblidarquadtree.la] Error 1
