Hi,
I am trying to knock my head from two days to solve this problem .
I have installed Glib 2.32 , which is needed for gstreamer compiling but when I compile Gstreamer getting error :
configure: Requested 'glib-2.0 >= 2.32.0' but version of GLib Uninstalled is 2.29.2
configure: error: This package requires GLib >= 2.32.0 to compile.
configure failed

Note kg-config --modversion glib-2.0 shows: 2.34.2

but dont know why I am getting error : glib-2.0 >= 2.32.0' while compilation

Is it not getting new Glib path . I am missing any thing on it?
Please help

In most cases, if you want to compile from source, you'll need the development versions of the depended libraries. They normally come with the same name but with -dev or -devel attached to the name.

Welcome to LQ.

Please try to set the new glib first in the LD_LIBRARY_PATH, like :

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/lib:/usr/lib:/lib
( Or wherever you installed the "2.32.0".)

But : It may be difficult on some OS to handle two versions.

I have installed all the depended libraries for Glib .
In fact Glib is build and configured successfully but I think older version of glib is still running hence getting the error : glib-2.0 >= 2.32.0' while compilation
how to update the Glib version so that when i am compiling it should take glib 2.32 and not 2.0

To make things clear. Did you install the new glib from a package or did you also build it from source?

I did install new Glib package
site : http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs...ral/glib2.html

I configured and build glib 2.32.0
Now I am building gstreamer and for that I need Glib version 2.32.0
Already my system had glib 2.0

I am not able to compile Gstreamer even if I have installed Glib 2.32
getting error as mentioned above
