[CIG-LONG] Compiling Gale 2 on Ubuntu 16.04

[David Boutelier]

Hi,


I am trying to compile Gale-2_0_1 on a Ubuntu 16.04 workstation to get the benefit of parallel acceleration.


I do have the libxml2 library but the configure script does not find it.


This where my libxml is:


david at CG106-3XZ3TF2:/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu$ pwd
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu

david at CG106-3XZ3TF2:/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu$ ls -la libxml2*
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 2947916 Jun  4 02:57 libxml2.a
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root      16 Jun  4 02:57 libxml2.so -> libxml2.so.2.9.3
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root      16 Oct 21 20:37 libxml2.so.2 -> libxml2.so.2.9.3
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1805560 Jun  4 02:57 libxml2.so.2.9.3

So I started compiling with the argument libxml2-lib-dir like this


david at CG106-3XZ3TF2:~/Gale-2_0_1$ ./configure.sh --libxml2-lib-dir='/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu'
scons: Reading SConscript files ...

If you require help, send the files:

config.cfg (if it exists)

and this is the content of the config.log

I am perplexed. Can you guide me ? What I am missing?


Thanks
