Many tnx Dave for your fast reply :-)
I use openSUSE 11.0 and would uninstall hamlib.
Then there was nothing to do but also let fldigi leave its install.
After I installed hamlib, and the after again I would install the fldigi
rpm again.
But it would also install the hamlib rpm.
Then I downloaded the fldigi tarball.
But it tells me:
# ./configure
checking for a BSD-compatible install... /usr/bin/install -c
checking whether build environment is sane... yes
checking for a thread-safe mkdir -p... /bin/mkdir -p
checking for gawk... gawk
checking whether make sets $(MAKE)... yes
checking whether to enable maintainer-specific portions of Makefiles..no
checking for g++... no
checking for c++... no
checking for gpp... no

checking for RCC... no
checking for xlC_r... no

checking for C++ compiler default output file name...
configure: error: C++ compiler cannot create executables
See `config.log' for more details.
What am I to do now
