Re: gEDA-dev: Intalling repo code on Ubuntu 8.10

     Note that pkg-config not only looks for libgeda, but also checks
     the
     version and barfs if the version of libgeda found is incorrect.
     Some
     suggestions:
     *  Run pkg-config from the command line and see what results.
     Here's
     the magic command:
     pkg-config --modversion libgeda
     If the version reported is different from the one you think it is,
     then either your libgeda hasn't been updated in your build for some
     reason, or your PKG_CONFIG_PATH has a different libgeda somewhere
     earlier in the search path.
     * You can also look inside your .so to see what version it is using
     brute force.  In your lib directory do this:
     strings libgeda.so | grep 200
     This will print out any strings with a "200" in them, including the
     date code.  Ignore the other spew; the date code (something like
     20070708 or hopefully later) is what you want.
     If you have the wrong libgeda, then try nuking the lib directory
     under
     the target (or maybe just the entire target directory tree) and
     doing a full rebuild.
     HTH,
     Stuart

   I tried what you said but the version of libgeda in my
   /usr/local/geda/lib directory is 20080706 (which is what it is inside
   the Makefiles for the DATE_VERSION env variable).

   I already tried nuking the whole thing and doing a fresh rebuild and
   it didn't help.
   Any other ideas?
   Thanks for the suggestions.
