missing jpeglib.h

[David G. Schlecht]

Hi All,

I ran across an interesting article in Linux Magazine about
the Netpbm utilities. When trying to "make" the tools,
from source, I get a missing file error for jpeglib.h.

The error is correct, there is no such animal on my machine
and I've found no such animal on any of the install CDs (v3.02),
either.

Of course, I checked the makefile and Readme for Netpbm but
no info there.

Any suggestions on where to find this missing piece?

Any help would be appreciated.

It looks like you need to install libjpeg62-dev .

The specific answer is to install the libjpeg62-dev package.
