(mgp-users 00306) MagicPoint 1.07a won't compile

[Bostjan Muller <neonatus@gimp.thz.net>]

Hi!

I was trying to compile MagicPoint version 1.07a as described in the README:
./configure
xmkmf
make Makefiles
make

After the last command compiling ends with an error saying:
rm -f libmgpimage.a

collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make: *** [mgp] Error 1

I don't know what to do to make it compile since I have no knowledge of
programing myself :(

I am running SuSE linux 6.2, glibc, Xfree86 3.3.4-7 and libpng-2.1.0-32.

I hope someone on this list can help me.

THX in advance!

Bostjan
