[JDEV] Why does libjabber complain about absence of libxode?

[Frederic Faure]

Hi,

Since nowhere are to be found recent RPMs of the different modules required 
to use Jabber, I d'loaded the source, and like a lot of people, failed with 
./configure of libjabber:

checking for libxode-config... no
configure: error:
******************************************************************
* You do not seem to have libxode installed.  This is a required *
* package for libjabber to build.  Please see:                   *
*                 http://download.jabber.org                     *
* to get this package.                                           *
******************************************************************

=> I installed pth and adns though RPM, added /usr/local/lib to 
/etc/ld.so.conf, and did run ldconfig after compiling/installing libxode. I 
even rebooted this RH 6.2, to no avail. Why does libjabber keep complaining?

# whereis libxode
libxode: /usr/local/lib/libxode.so /usr/local/lib/libxode.la 
/usr/local/lib/libxode.a

Thx
FF.
