What it actually means that it was unable to compile a simple directfb
test application. Possibly libdirectfb.so isn't found. Check your
/etc/ld.so.conf


And then some devel talk:
Looks like the configure script is a bit funny in that with default
autodetect it will compile a test program twice, first to just test if it
works and then to get the version, but if you specify
--enable-directfb=yes only the version check program is compiled. Jiri is
this yoyr doing? :) If so did you have a specific reason for this?
Looks to me like the first test could be removed.
