What's this "So-and-so not found in PATH" junk I keep getting?
Hi...I've only got basic expierience in linux (The most complex thing I've done is stopping GNOME from starting krandrtray 4 times at login...or maybe adding a valid antry to fstab manually).
I know how to change paths/environment variables in Windows ME (Sorta) but how do you do that in Linux? The reason I'm asking is because a compile&install pre-configuration script suddenly quits with a "Package sigc++ not found in the pkg-config search path." Then it goes on about PKG_CONFIG_PATH... I'm pretty sure I have this sigc++ thing on my system, but apparently, my system doesn't know where. |
If you are using bash you can edit .bash_profile and add
PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/path/that you want to add export PKG_CONFIG_PATH |

You should figure out why that is not in the PKG_CONFIG_PATH (not installed or not installed correctly) before you add it to that variable. If you must do that try below: Code:
export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=$PKG_CONFIG_PATH: /path/to/sigc++ |
Your right I was ass-u-ming that he didn't currently have a PKG_CONFIG_PATH
