Where are my GTK /QT libraries?? (Problems Compiling)

yekrahs · 12-16-2005, 08:03 AM

I've had problems compiling a couple of programs. One for GTK, and one for QT. I have a fairly standard SUSE 10.0 install, so I don't know what's gone wrong here.
I got this message when compiling the first one (both card games, btw) :

Quote:

checking for gtk-config... no
checking for GTK - version >= 1.2.0... no
*** The gtk-config script installed by GTK could not be found
*** If GTK was installed in PREFIX, make sure PREFIX/bin is in
*** your path, or set the GTK_CONFIG environment variable to the
*** full path to gtk-config.
configure: error: Cannot find GTK: Is gtk-config in path?

I'd have thought that my GTK version would be new enough... SUSE 10.0 isn't that old yet, is it?

My GTK packages. Is there something else I need installed, or what?

Maybe you need to provide a prefix to ./configure. What do you want to compile?

reddazz · 12-16-2005, 10:08 AM

for the gtk problem you need to install the development packages for gtk 1.x (its not the same as gtk2). For hearts you neeed qt 2, but I am not sure if its worth installing.

Any suggestions?

I thought when it said that e.g.
version >= 1.2.0
that as I have a higher version that 1.2.0 it would be ok. Why do I need earlier versions of software? Surely qt and gtk should be backward compatible.

Would installing gtk1 installment packages & qt2 mess up my existing gtk & qt packages? (Why would installing qt 2 not be worth it?)

Regarding QT...

By chance, are you using a 64bit processor?
I've had similar problems, you can read some posts in my similar thread

EclipseAgent · 12-17-2005, 05:56 PM

To compile it is best to install:

kdelibs3-devel

If you do a rpm -qa kdelib* you can verify that they are not installed then install them through YaST or by using whatever you use.

yekrahs · 12-19-2005, 08:33 AM

Unfortunately, my computer: just 32 bit (And an old one, at that).

I will try looking for kdelibs3-devel, gtk 1.x & qt 2

However, as I said before, will it mess up existing gtk / qt stuff on my computer? Does anyone else know why qt 2 is not worth it?

Like I said gtk 1.x is not the same as gtk 2.x, so they can coexist on any system. I've tried compiling hearts using qt3 and it configures fine but the build does not work fine on Suse 10. If I get it to work, I'll let you know.

Thanks v much: I couldn't get qt2 to install.

As for installing gtk1, I did an rpm search for it and could only find a "gtk1-compat-devel" package. (Is this the right one to install for gkt1 compatibility?)

Anyway, it wouldn't install as there was a conflict with a glibc package. Should I jsut forget it? I might look for java euchre, if such a thing is out there.

I guess this is just a spelling error. The gtk1 package is called "gtk-1.2.10-888" and the respective devel package "gtk-devel-1.2.10-893" (Interestingly, it seems that my devel version is newer).

Would you mind telling us what are those program(s) that you are trying to install?

(and links please)

abisko00 · 12-20-2005, 09:36 AM

Tried to reproduce your error in the hearts compilation. Couldn't!
No complains about the qt version. My setup concering qt is identical to yours. However, the compilation failed:

Code:

player.h:88: warning: ‘class Player::Receiver’ has virtual functions but non-virtual destructor
../common/general/circular_iterator.h: In member function ‘circular_iterator<It>& circular_iterator<It>::operator+=(typename std::iterator_traits<_Iterator>::difference_type)’:

../common/general/circular_iterator.h:141: error: ‘d’ was not declared in this scope
../common/general/circular_iterator.h:145: error: ‘d’ was not declared in this scope

Didn't do any further research yet.

Euchre and Hearts (I like card games)
http://freshmeat.net/projects/hearts/
http://freshmeat.net/projects/euchre/

I realise just looking at them now that they're both quite old now... Euchre hasn't been updated since 2003

Thanks for that. Couldn't find them when I did an rpm search.

Strange. Well, if you have any success...

Thanks
(And a v. Merry Christmas to everyone).

Hi,

I also have the same problem when I tried installing PuTTy where they prompt me:
"..../bin/sh: gtk-config not found.."

I did an "rpm -q gtk" and it shows as:
gtk-1.2.10-888

but I still cannot find any "gtk-devel-1.2x" package under YAST.

I am using Suse 10.0, any kind souls out there using Suse 10.0 have managed to find the development rpm, can share with me.

Gracias.

Rgds
Johnny

Well I got gtk-1.2.10-888 and gtk-devel-1.2.10-893 installed, (it configured ok) but got this error when I tried to make:
