This is the error that keeps bugging Mac users also. On Linux it is possible that pkg-config is not installed. If it is, You need to set PKG_CONFIG_PATH . If you used the defaults for liblouis try PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig Check to make sure that liblouis.pc is in this location. I'm not sure about libxml2 . It is usually installed by default on Linux. Good luck, John On Fri, Jun 13, 2014 at 09:00:38PM -0400, Brandon Roller wrote: > I am trying to set up liblouisutdml on a laptop running Fedora 20.

I know both liblouis and libxm2 are installed. -- John J.
