how to remove an older version of glib
I am trying to install xmms, but I when I do ./configure, I get this error:
checking for GLIB - version >= 1.2.2...
*** 'glib-config --version' returned 1.2.2, but GLIB (1.2.10)
*** was found! If glib-config was correct, then it is best
*** to remove the old version of GLIB. You may also be able to fix the error
*** by modifying your LD_LIBRARY_PATH enviroment variable, or by editing
*** /etc/ld.so.conf. Make sure you have run ldconfig if that is
*** required on your system.
*** If glib-config was wrong, set the environment variable GLIB_CONFIG
*** to point to the correct copy of glib-config, and remove the file config.cache
*** before re-running configure
no
configure: error: *** GLIB >= 1.2.2 not installed - please install first ***
As far as I can see, it makes sense to simply remove 1.2.2, but I do not know how to do that. It must be simple, but looking all over the internet for the past 15 hours has gotten me nowhere. I have just started using linux as of yesterday, so it would be best if I was treated as if I knew absolutely nothing (which may be more true than I would like). FYI, I am running Mandrake 10. Anything else you need to know to help me answer this damn riddle, I'd be happy to oblige. Thanks in advance.
