I've been using linux for several years now, and given that I get banshee running I can completely do away with Micro$ux
. But here is where I've run into a bit of a problem.
Obviously since I'm running slackware I know that the package manager will not have every program I want. I also know that when I build a package from source there will be some dependencies I do not have, and I need to adapt and overcome. I've been working away at the dependencies for a couple hours, and one is killing me "taglib-sharp 2.0.3.7". I downloaded that exact package (as it is the newest version) and installed from source (simple "./configure && make && make install"). Worked just fine, seemed to have installed with no errors during make and no missing dependencies during config. That would lead me to believe it installed, however the configure script for banshee is still complaining that it can't find any taglib-sharp at all. So I redownloaded the source and tried again to no avail. Any help is appreciated. Below is the exact output of the banshee config (though it's just as you'd expect).
Code:
checking for GLIB_2_22... yes
checking for TAGLIB_SHARP... configure: error: Package requirements (taglib-sharp >= 2.0.3.7) were not met:
No package 'taglib-sharp' found
Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you
installed software in a non-standard prefix.
Alternatively, you may set the environment variables TAGLIB_SHARP_CFLAGS
and TAGLIB_SHARP_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config.
See the pkg-config man page for more details.
