GLIB and GTK
i have a rh9 2.4.20-8 kept up-to-date by yum thru Fedora Legacy project., with only a few
non-standard add-ons (alsa sound, winmodem driver, java runtime, jinchess) recently
was trying to install a downloaded game (gnu backgammon) and got error msg:
checking for pkg-config... /usr/bin/pkg-config
checking for GTK+ version 2 or newer... no
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.
fall back
checking for pkg-config... (cached) /usr/bin/pkg-config
checking for GLIB - version >= 2.0.0... no
*** Could not run GLIB test program, checking why...
*** The test program failed to compile or link. See the file config.log for the
*** exact error that occured. This usually means GLIB is incorrectly installed.

*** You must have installed Glib1 or Glib2 in order to
compile GNU Backgammon
using (rpm -qa |grep -i <...>) i found found packages gtk+-1.2.10-25, glib-1.2.10-10,
glib2-2.2.1-1
my question is: what are GTK+, GLIB, and Glib1 and Glib2 in relation to what i already
have and do i have to install them? thanks for input:
