checking for libev library location... no configure: error: Didn't find the libev library dir in '/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/ /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu//lib64 /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu//lib /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu//lib64/libev /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu//lib/libev'

I'm having this same issue on Focal Fossa 20.04.

Using no --with-ev flag complains about "/usr/local/libev/lib64 /usr/local/libev/lib /usr/local/lib64/libev /usr/local/lib/libev /opt/libev/lib64 /opt/libev/lib /usr/lib64/libev /usr/lib/libev /usr/local/lib64 /usr/local/lib /usr/lib64 /usr/lib" instead. Using the flag for /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/ yields a search for subdirectories which don't exist - the libev.a and libev.so files are in the directory itself.

According to ev++.m4 this message is triggered by the absence of libev.a and libev.so which are indeed in the x86_64-linux-gnu folder, I suppose I will try symlinking each to one of the error folders and maybe remove the links after the build.

Update: it works.
