Hi.

I downlowed xfce from this link http://www.xfce.org/index.php?page=download&lang=en
and i made those steps and preperations: http://www.os-works.com/documentatio.../#preparations

when i started to compile xfce, i got this problem when i was trying to build mousepad:

Code:

I don't compile stuff often but I wanted to try this new beta version of Xfce on my Debian system and after two or three attempts I managed to install it successfully. I also made some notes in case I wanted to do it again. Here are my notes, hopefully they can help you to solve your problem:

-- add your user to the "staff" group (so you can install stuff to /usr/local as a normal user), logout & login
* "su" to root
-- install the "build-essential" & "pkg-config" packages
-- add the "deb-src" repository line to /etc/apt/sources.list and run "apt-get update"
-- install build dependencies (apt-get build-dep xfdesktop4 xfce4-terminal xfprint4 alsa-utils)
* "exit" to become a normal user again
-- download the Xfce GUI-installer (for example, to ~/tmp/xfce) and make it executable (chmod +x)
-- run the Xfce GUI-installer (sh ~/tmp/xfce/xfce4-4.3.90.1-installer.bin) and point it to /usr/local/xfce

Thanks.

do you mean those deb-src?

i take this message when i run apt-get build-dep xfdesktop4 xfce4-terminal xfprint4 alsa-utils

Code:

E: Build-Depends dependency for xfce4-terminal cannot be satisfied because the package autotools-dev cannot be found

does those tools are for unstable?

i always take this message in the gui-installer and in my previews post you can see the error log.

The autotools-dev package should be available for Debian testing. http://packages.debian.org/cgi-bin/s...ng&release=all

You need to set the official Debian package repos like explained in APT HOWTO: http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/ap...basico.en.html

Your /etc/apt/sources.list should contain something like this:

deb http://http.us.debian.org/debian testing main contrib non-free
deb-src http://http.us.debian.org/debian testing main contrib non-free

When I don't need the source .deb packages, I usually comment the deb-src line in order to make "apt-get update" quicker. But "apt-get build-dep" needs the deb-src line, so I uncommented it. I also added this step to my notes, so I wouldn't forget it.

I'm not sure but I think "apt-get build-dep xfprint4" might solve the problem you have in building mousepad. IIRC, mousepad is a version of a text editor called leafpad with Xfce printing support added. So it would probably make sense that mousepad fails to compile if the build dependencies for xfprint4 are missing.

Thanks!!!!

i added in my source.list the deb
http://http.us.debian.org/debian testing main contrib non-free
deb-src http://http.us.debian.org/debian testing main contrib non-free

and then i installed leafpad (that i could find in my packages before) and the installation succesfully completed the compile.
