I am trying to build Sonic Visualiser beta 3 on Fedora 25. There seems to be a problem with Cap'n Proto (I built 0.6-dev from Git). Here is the what I get when I try and ./configure SV :
[...]
configure: checking specifically for a newer Cap'n Proto than the 0.5.3 release checking for capnp... no configure: Failed to find required module capnp using pkg-config, trying again by old-fashioned means checking capnp/common.h usability... yes checking capnp/common.h presence... yes checking for capnp/common.h... yes checking for _ZN5capnp29expectedSizeInWordsFromPrefixEN2kj8ArrayPtrIKNS_4wordEEE in -lcapnp... no configure: error: Failed to find library capnp for required module capnp
The check I have in configure is dumb: improve it.
