[swfmill] Impossible to compile from sources

[Mark Winterhalder]

Hi Zárate,

this means Swfmill can't find the library.

If you compiled from sources, it should be in /usr/local/lib. If not,
run 'locate libswft' (and 'updatedb' before that if necessary) to see
where it hides. That directory should be in your path -- run 'echo
$LD_LIBRARY_PATH' to verify. If that doesn't include the path to your
libswft, then that's the problem.

You can set it like this:

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/usr/local/lib

After that, Swfmill should run normally until you logout. I'm sure
there is a nice, clean place to put those environment variables on
Ubuntu (or whatever you're using), but I don't know where. On my
Gentoo I have a file /etc/env.d/99swfmill that has that line, but you
could also just add it to the end of your ~/.bashrc, I guess.

HTH,
Mark
