Problem installing pyxmms
 
Hello!

I am trying to install pyxmms so cornerxmms in superkaramba (KDE) reads the title and time of the song currently displaying in xmms

But when i try to install it I type (First try without making myself root)
- Cd to the directory
- python ./setup.py build
running build
running build_py
running build_ext
-python ./setup.py install
running install
running build
running build_py
running build_ext
running install_lib
copying build/lib.linux-i686-2.4/xmms/common.py -> /usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/xmms
error: could not delete '/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/xmms/common.py': Permission denied

Ok here i understand to install i have to make myself root so i do:

-python ./setup.py build
running build
running build_py
running build_ext
-su
password: (introduce root password)
-python ./setup.py install
sh: glib-config: command not found
glib-config returned a non-zero exit status. Aborting.

I dont understand here so i try to build it being root to see if the problem is with the root cause not being root it advanced until it didnt have permission to delete

So i do:
-su
-python ./setup.py build
sh: glib-config: command not found
glib-config returned a non-zero exit status. Aborting.


So the problem is that when i am root it seems like the glib-config doesnt work, but it does work while being normal user.

I also did (so you can see what i have installed if thats the problem )
-rpm -qa | grep glib
glibc-2.3.4-23.4
glibc-info-2.3.4-23
glib2-doc-2.6.3-4
taglib-1.3.1-4
dbus-1-glib-0.23.4-7
glibc-i18ndata-2.3.4-23.4
glib-debuginfo-1.2.10-593
glib2-devel-2.6.3-4
glibc-locale-2.3.4-23.4
glib-devel-1.2.10-593
glibc-html-2.3.4-23
glib2-debuginfo-2.6.3-4
glib2-2.6.3-4
glibc-devel-2.3.4-23.4
glibc-profile-2.3.4-23
glib-1.2.10-593
glibc-debuginfo-2.3.4-23


Anyone have an idea what i have to do? (Probably is a newbie error, sorry about it :P)

Thanks in advance
