GiNaC list, I've successfully installed GiNaC 1.4.3, config.log attached. Another software package, xloops, built on GiNaC is looking for ginac-config. It's expecting to see it in PREFIX/bin, where PREFIX was established while configuring GiNaC (ie ./configure --prefix=PREFIX). Here's a snip of on-screen indications during attemped configure of xloops ------------------------------------------------- checking for ginac-config... no checking for GiNaC - version >= 1.2.0... no *** The ginac-config script installed by GiNaC could not be found *** If GiNaC was installed in PREFIX, make sure PREFIX/bin is in *** your path, or set the GINACLIB_CONFIG environment variable to the *** full path to ginac-config. configure: error: need to have GiNaC installed -------------------------------------------------- PREFIX/bin is in my path and slocate ginac-config comes up empty. The only ginac file in PREFIX/bin is ginac-excompiler. I'm trying to avoid asking for help with xloops... So, here's my GiNaC question. X-loops was last rev'd 11 yrs ago, is the ginac-config script a thing of GiNaC's past or have I screwed up my install of GiNaC in such a way that ginac-config wasn't created...? Thanks for any help, Chris Bouchard

Yes. \begin{quote} 1.3.8 (28 August 2007) * Drop support of ginac-config and ginac.m4. Please use pkg-config instead. \end{quote} See the chapter `Package tools' of the manual. Best regards, Alexei -- All science is either physics or stamp collecting.
