what's wrong?????

An unresolved dependency. Check to see if you have libjpeg installed. If not, search it out on google and get it installed.

try 'whereis libjpeg' or 'locate libjpeg'

jpeg library installed......
[root@localhost root]# locate "libjpeg"
/usr/lib/libjpeg.so.62
/usr/lib/libjpeg.so.62.0.0

Hmm, ok. I was having a very similar problem with gtk+-2.2 recently. Take a look at the thread and see if it helps you at all:
http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...threadid=87502

I would tell you more, but that's all I know on the subject right now I just keep hacking away.

Make sure /usr/lib is in your LD_LIBRARY_PATH variable.

> echo $LD_LIBRARY_PATH

if not

> export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/usr/lib

good luck!

first.. i run ld_library_path in shell prompt.. not print anything in shell prompt.
so, setup the export command , and run the echo command again, print the /usr/lib path.
run ./configure command,, same error message appear.
[root@localhost gtk+-2.2.3]# echo $LD_LIBRARY_PATH

[root@localhost gtk+-2.2.3]# export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/usr/lib
[root@localhost gtk+-2.2.3]# echo $LD_LIBRARY_PATH
:/usr/lib
[root@localhost gtk+-2.2.3]# ./configure

Did you try it like I did on my other thread? Worked for me:

export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=$PKG_CONFIG_PATH:/usr/lib/libjpeg.so.62

Im not real familiar with all the commands, but thats what greg103 told me and it worked.

Hey !

Hi people...

well i had the same problem while i was installing the gtk+2.2.4

and found a very good solution in this thread in other mailing list:

http://www.mail-archive.com/gtk-list.../msg13058.html

But if you don't want to read it and just want a fast solution, i'll paste here the basic steps.

# tar -xvzf jpegsrc.v6b.tar.gz
# cd jpeg-6b
# ./configure --prefix=/usr
# make test
# make install
# make install-lib

Of course you must have installed all the other dependencies of gtk.

Good luck.
