here is more specifically the situation on the install....
We are trying to build
pspp-0.10.2 from source on a Centos 6.8 system. I have made sure that the
system has all the libraries installed, however, on ./configure --without-cairo
--without-gui , the configure process ends saying that libxml2 is not installed,
libgslcblas and gsl version 1.13 or later are not installed.
No makefile is generated
so the install can't continue. How would we specify for the configure file to
look in a specific location for the libraries it says it is missing?
