GTK, GTK+ and MPlayer won't install ?

ivan@elfak · 02-29-2004, 10:12 AM

I tried to install MPlayer and after make etc. tried to install -gui, and it said that I don't have GTK installed.
Problem is I use Fedora Core 1 and I have GTK+ installed...
How to avoid this problem ?

And a newbie question : after make install, where is program being installed ? What dir. ?

if you want to compile it, its not enought to just have GTK....
you also need GTK's header files and otehr development tools

install GTK-devel

but to be honest i dont see any point in compiling Mplayer yourself.
why not install from rpm ?
that way do dont need any development packages installed.

i found installing mplayer using the method that is the 4th post down on this thread http://linuxquestions.org/questions/...hlight=mplayer only takes a couple of minutes.

or you could just download the rpm's and
rpm -Uvh mplayer-*.rpm [+ any dependency's u need]

or use yum...

yum install mplayer
workes great

The mplayer GUI needs GTK+1. Do you have that too?
