configure: error: Library requirements (libgnomeui-2.0 libglade-2.0 libwnck-1.0 >= 2.1.5) not met; consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if your libraries are in a nonstandard prefix so pkg-config can find them.

i found some packages of the list but most of them dont work.
so i get this now:

Code:

checking for a BSD-compatible install... /usr/bin/install -c

checking whether the C compiler works... configure: error: cannot run C compiled  programs.

If you meant to cross compile, use `--host'.

See `config.log' for more details.

not getting that much further.

so where can i get these packages, and how do i solve this error's

im running on a SuSe 9.0 system...
the rest of the system can be found on an other thread...

thanks in advance/

what exactly are you compiling, that may help us

it does not realy mather what i try to compile, it gives an error everytime i try.

but those 2 are from a Gnome update. just the tarball's from the site...
since the RPM's from the Suse site do not work... (atleast not like i want them to. they let my Gnome crash and that is not where i update for...

if anyone can help that would be verry nice..

this is one of the screens:

Code:

linux:~ # cd '/F/Gnome update/file-roller-2.4.4'

linux:/F/Gnome update/file-roller-2.4.4 # sh ./configure checking for a BSD-compatible install... /usr/bin/install -c

linux:/F/Gnome update/file-roller-2.4.4 #

with the where and how putted in it...

looks like most of your development tools are missing ?

Well PoezeBeest, i've get same error ("cannot run C compiled programs...") when compiling any sources.

Guess (because before that everything was working pretty fine) that it was some kinda problem with some YOU update... but i'm not sure...

I've done so --> reinstall "autoconf", "automake", "make", and "gcc" from YAST2 software install program... But things still not worked...

Program sources (simplecdrx was my last try) were located at a different partition than $HOME one (but both were ReiserFS)... I copied tarball file to my $HOME directory, extract and compiled it well...
So, the problem is apparently fixed... But i don't know what caused it...

Finally, for gnu/linux masters at config.log i remember it was som kinda "not permission for a.out" message (PoezeBeest, if you still haven't fixed it (and before you try it reinstalling those packages) please post your config.log...

P.D.: My english is really awful, sorry

thank you, now you say it, its true, i tried it sometime ago, and it worked.
but forgot it again.... o well. i got my PC Fried (its baken, and somewhat to 'well done'. and i dont even like meat..)

so im running on a fricking Windows again... (i must say 2000 is the best version they made till now...)

and its not like my englisch is that good. i can speak it, but writing it.. nope not my cup of thee....
