help with GLIB and GTK
I am trying to install xmms on mandrake 9.2 and of course i am having dependency problems. every time i run ./configure for anything i am trying to install i get varying different errors. with xmms i am getting:
checking for glib-config... no checking for GLIB - version >= 1.2.2... no *** The glib-config script installed by GLIB could not be found *** If GLIB was installed in PREFIX, make sure PREFIX/bin is in *** your path, or set the GLIB_CONFIG environment variable to the *** full path to glib-config. configure: error: *** GLIB >= 1.2.2 not installed - please install first *** so i tried to install GLIB 1.2.10 but it extracted to the current directory wich is my download directory where should GLIB be extracted to ??? thanks for any help. |
Make sure you run configure as ./confogure --prefix=/usr
Mandrake installs GTK, GLIB and all its other fans into the /usr directory. You also need the devel packages, too. You can install these via the MDK Control Panel (software management). Just search for dev or something similar. Good luck. |
Thanks, I fixed that but now i get 1.2.2 not found but it is installed and i just installed 1.2.10 and it still says not found. I assume because its looking for the earlier version not the newer one but it says it found 1.2.2 but then it says its not installed??:confused:
How do i fix this? I dont know how to set envionment variables or remove the older version. Thanks checking for GLIB - version >= 1.2.2... *** 'glib-config --version' returned 1.2.2, but GLIB (1.2.10) *** was found! If glib-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 glib-config was wrong, set the environment variable GLIB_CONFIG *** to point to the correct copy of glib-config, and remove the file config.cache *** before re-running configure no configure: error: *** GLIB >= 1.2.2 not installed - please install first *** |
Anyone have any idea how to fix this problem? I cannot install the devel packages from cd every time i try i get errors that i cannot copy and past cuz they are in dialog boxes and they are no help anyway.
