configure: error: event-config.h not found! compiling Transmission 2.03 [SOLVED]

Post by alfema »

Hello all,

I'm trying to compile Transmission version 2.03, and when I run ./configure I get the error: event-config.h not found!

I don't know where it's looking for that file. I have one in /usr/include/event2 and two in the third-party directory: macosx-libevent-config.h and macosx-libevent-event-config.h. I copied the event-config.h to the third-party directory, but it gives the same error. Does anyone know what I can do?

System:
Host: alfema Kernel: 6.11.0-26-generic Arch: x86_64 Bits: 64
Desktop: Cinnamon v: 6.4.8 Distro: Linux Mint 22.1 Xia

Thanks in advance.
