I'm using ./configure, make, make install Configure line: $ ./configure PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/home/user/wip/lib/libevtlog EVTLOG_CFLAGS=-I/home/user/wip/lib/libevtlog/include --enable-static Since I'm 'staging' my build for another box, I needed to set PKG_CONFIG_PATH and EVTLOG_CFLAGS to have my 'staged' eventlog library to be found. The '--enable-static' was added to try and fix the error, but the it happens with or without it.

Or are you using ./configure, make, make install? Either way, seeing the arguments to ./configure that you used, or the one in the spec file you used, would be ideal.

Any pointers to what I can set during the build phase that will allow it to run?
