Re: Building Lily

[Mats Bengtsson]

Do you have a file called libkpathsea.a in the lib/ directory
where you installed kpathsea? In that case, the simplest solution
is probably to remove (or move away) all other libkpathsea.* files
from the same directory. Then, the linker will only find the static
library which should work well.
