For some reason I can't find the original post, so please forgive me
if I'm going over something that you already covered in the previous
posts.
Two details come to mind:
(1) You are clear that you do need the development packages when
compiling from source, right? That is, the package name ending in
-dev (you may have already said that you knew that, but I can't find
the original post, so just in case I thought I'd mention it)
(2) At some point, when I was trying to install from source on Ubuntu,
which should be almost identical to what you have with Debian, I had
to manually create one symlink in /usr/lib or /usr/local/lib --- ldconfig
failed to create it, and I was going insane with the error "library xxx
not found" when I could see the libxxxx.so file ..... But there was one
of the symlinks missing; not sure which one; it was probably the .so
the one that was missing; that is, I had libxxxx.so.2.1.0, then
libxxxx.so.2
as a symlink pointing to .2.1.0, and there was the .so missing, which
should be the symlink pointing to libxxxx.so.2
Hope this helps!
Carlos
