[Gretl-users] compiling gretl on debian etch

[Rob Tischer]

I recently installed a debian etch-based Linux OS. The etch gretl version is 
1.6.0. However, it is pretty straightforward to compile 1.6.5. One thing I 
noticed is that the configuration script was not consistent. ./configure 
returned a dependency error (libxml), so I installed libxml-dev. ./configure 
then displayed no issues, but make had errors associated with the lack of 
libxml2-dev (I believe).
