Gnome SlackBuild 2.20.3 installation steps

jbum · 05-21-2008, 06:53 AM

Now that Gnome 2.22.x is out, gnomeslackbuild.org does not have the installation steps for Gnome 2.20.3 (for Slackware 12.0). I need to know the base files (like glib2/pango/etc.) that need to be updated before "slapt-get --install gsb-desktop" can be performed. The step for this in 2.22.x is different. Only glibc and libwnck are required for Slackware 12.1.

Please help... I was trying to find a cached page that had the old page. No luck finding it yet.

I think that ftp://ftp.slackware.org.uk/gsb/gsb-2.20.3/README would be a good starting point for you.

Thanks for the reply. I saw this README but it doesn't mention the part where certain libraries like pango/glibc/etc are upgraded before running the GSB installation.

There was a section on this before on their website for 2.20.3.

Maybe this will offer better info then: http://svn.gnomeslackbuild.org/gsb/b...laced_packages
