     Hi Dear John
     
     Thanks a lot for your tips. After installing their respective header files
     of libxml2-devel, cairo-devel, pango-devel and etc; I can configure PSPP.
     address@hidden pspp-0.10.1]$ ./configure
     ...
     libtool: link: gcc -shared  -fPIC -DPIC  -Wl,--whole-archive
     src/data/.libs/libdata.a src/libpspp/.libs/liblibpspp.a gl/.libs/libgl.a
     -Wl,--no-whole-archive  -lxml2 -lreadline -lgslcblas -lz -lm  -O2
     -Wl,-soname -Wl,libpspp-core-0.10.1.so -o src/.libs/libpspp-core-0.10.1.so
     /usr/bin/ld:

     address@hidden pspp-0.10.1]$
     
     What can I do to solve this problem?
     Thanks a lot for your helps.
     

That is odd.  It looks as if it is linking against the static lib for libxml2 
instead
of the shared one.  Perhaps fedora has seperate packages for shared libraries?  
I am
afraid you will have to ask fedora expert about this.
