webkit compile error on libsoup

borsaman · 08-17-2009, 07:54 AM

Hi all,

I try to compile webkit. One dependency is libsoup. I have installed the v2.4 (suggested it bigger than 2.27.4), but there is an error. The output is like this.

------
checking for LIBSOUP... configure: error: Package requirements (libsoup-2.4 >= 2.27.4) were not met:

Requested 'libsoup-2.4 >= 2.27.4' but version of libsoup is 2.4.0

Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you
installed software in a non-standard prefix.

Alternatively, you may set the environment variables LIBSOUP_CFLAGS
and LIBSOUP_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config.
See the pkg-config man page for more details.
------

Can you help me?

Well, 2.4 is less than 2.27

I guess you have to d/l and install the latest version from git

Code:

git clone git://git.gnome.org/libsoup
