Exiv2

It should compile and link with g++, not gcc. Can you post a bit more context? The output of the ./configure and make steps would be helpful.

-- Exiv2 0.19 feature configuration summary
--
-- Build a shared library......... YES
-- Use g++ visibility support..... YES
-- PNG image support.............. YES
-- Native language support........ NO

gettext is required for native language support. Make sure the
gettext header files are installed. You can get gettext from
http://www.gnu.org/software/gettext/

-- Nikon lens database............ YES
-- XMP metadata support........... YES
------------------------------------------------------------------

That looks ok, I can't see anything wrong. Can you also post the output of 'make'?
