Description

I tried to compile and install the last desktop-file-utils package when I bumped into this error:

if test "emacs" != "no"; then
am__dir=. am__subdir_includes='';
case desktop-entry-mode.elc in /)
am__dir=echo 'desktop-entry-mode.elc' | sed 's,/[^/]*$,,';
am__subdir_includes="-L $am__dir -L ./$am__dir";
esac;
test -d "$am__dir" || /usr/bin/mkdir -p "$am__dir" || exit 1;
emacs --batch

$am__subdir_includes -L . -L .
--eval "(defun byte-compile-dest-file (f) "desktop-entry-mode.elc")"
--eval "(unless (byte-compile-file "desktop-entry-mode.el") (kill-emacs 1))";
else :; fi emacs: error while loading shared libraries: libMagickWand-6.Q16.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

I had to recompile ImageMagick last week, and I never use emacs, so I didn't notice that it is linked to the so.1 version (the new version created .so.2).

Is it possible to skip things emacs related? Maybe a configure option? I couldn't find any solution, short from editing configure by hand?

Cheers
