glib problem when trying to install GAIM
I've recently started using Linux. Debian 3.1 to be specific. I tried to install gaim 1.3.1 but I got an error reporting that I need GLib version >=2.0. I downloaded, configured, made, and installed GLib 2.7.0. Now I get this error when trying to configure gaim:
checking for GLIB - version >= 2.0.0... *** 'pkg-config --modversion glib-2.0' returned 2.7.0, but GLIB (2.6.4) *** was found! If pkg-config was correct, then it is best *** to remove the old version of GLib. You may also be able to fix the error *** by modifying your LD_LIBRARY_PATH enviroment variable, or by editing *** /etc/ld.so.conf. Make sure you have run ldconfig if that is *** required on your system. *** If pkg-config was wrong, set the environment variable PKG_CONFIG_PATH *** to point to the correct configuration files no configure: error: *** GLib 2.0 is required to build Gaim; please make sure you have the GLib *** development headers installed. The latest version of GLib is *** always available at *gtk site*. Can anyone help? |
Can't you use apt to install gaim? It should fix any dependencies automatically.
"apt-get install gaim" |
Woohoo. Thanks darkleaf. Now, is there any way to remove the unstable GLib which I installed?
