I thought you were building SVN trunk! Just use --enable-dynamic I
think. I most recently built everything with trunk. With TRUNK
definitely just put

./configure --enable-dynamic --prefix=/path/to/install

and NO --enable-libabiword

In building pyabiword, you just need to make sure abiword-2.6.pc is
discoverable by configure. You don't use
--with-abiword="..." instead make sure the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment
variable contains the directory with
abiword-2.6.pc in it.

My .bashrc file has:

export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/home/msevior/abidir/lib/pkgconfig
export PYTHONPATH=/home/msevior/abidir/lib/python2.5/site-packages

To set these environment variables at login.

Cheers

Martin
