How do I get past this dependency?

  • 772

I'm trying to install libgcal, and when I run ./configure I get the following error:

configure: error: "* libxml2 not found! You need it to build Library gcalendar. *"

I installed libxml2 from the repositories but it still gives me this error. Can someone please help?

compiling

    You need to install libxml2-dev ; the compiler needs the header files for this library to compile code against it's API. This is true of most binary libraries (but not libraries for scripting languages like Python).
