Newsboat version (copy the output of newsboat -v or the first line of git show):
commit acd6b9d (HEAD -> master, origin/master, origin/HEAD)

Config file (copy from ~/.newsboat/config or ~/.config/newsboat/config):
no config yet

INSERT COPY HERE

Steps to reproduce the issue:

  1. build stfl from git. run sudo ldconfig.

  2. run config.sh in newsboat folder

  3. it shows stfl not found. stfl is in /usr/local/lib and /usr/local/include.

Other info you think is relevant:
added /usr/local/lib to /etc/ld.so.conf and ran sudo ldconfig.
sudo ldconfig -v shows:
libstfl.so.0 -> libstfl.so.0.24

will gladly supply any requested info. please let me know what i did wrong here.

Hi! Newsboat looks for most of its dependencies using pkg-config, so you should have "stfl.pc" somewhere. Here on Debian it's in /usr/lib/pkgconfig. So it's a matter of find / -name stfl.pc to figure out where it is on your system, and then (maybe) figuring out why pkg-config doesn't look for it there.

finally had a chance to figure this out.

PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/usr/lib/pkg-config ./config.sh

that did the trick and it built!
thanks for your help!
