Re: [Ltib] Asterisk 1.6.2 build error for libxml2

[Stuart Hughes]

Hi Nirmala,

LTIB doesn't split target packages into pkg/pkg-dev (sub-packages).  Any 
dependency on a -dev pkg would be something to do with host side 
dependencies.

You can't go into directories and run ./configure unless you're in the 
LTIB shell.  Even then you need to be careful as the spec file may be 
passing a number of commands (you need to incorporate them).

You will get different results when using LTIB or natively building, but 
that's because LTIB is building for the target (cross-compiling).

To resolve this you need to start again (clean of your failed build) and 
 look at the actual failure but studying config.log.  If the failure is 
a missing host -dev package, then add it with your package manager.  If 
it's to do with the target environment you need to figure out what needs 
changes, or possibly add --disable-xmldoc to the configure in the .spec 
file you created for the updated asterisk

Regards, Stuart
