[MPlayer-users] More compile error - RC3

[Kevin Collins]

Ok, today I went out and bought SuSE 8.1...I thought maybe newer OS
might solve some of my problems.  But that hasn't helped either.

After my last attempt (with SuSE 8) I found out that in fact I did _not_
have the X11 Developement packages installed - see posts from earlier
today.  I corrected that with the SuSE 8.1 install.

I also figured the new source code couldn't hurt either, so I d'loaded
it just a few minutes ago.

./configure --enable-gui

I get this error now...

Error: PNG Support required for GUI compliation, please install libpng
or libpng-dev packages.

This is (what I think are) the relavent portions of the configure.log

I have *both* the libpng and libpng-devel packages installed.  Yast2
even says so. In fact, the default SuSE 8.1 version of MPlayer works
with the GUI, but it doesn't do what I need.  Is there something that
I've missed?

I've read all the documents I can find, I've been searching the mailing
lists and not uncovered anything that make the compilation work.  So I'm
calling out once again to the list for help.

Any Ideas?
