You should just run 'make' and 'make install' (or checkinstall if you use that). Post up the error messages if that's not working.

The dir where GTK is /opt/gtk

I guess that all I need to do is add a hardlink right? I have never done this so I need to be guided through.

It wants something like this:

$ locate gtk+-2.0.pc
/usr/lib/pkgconfig/gtk+-2.0.pc

$ export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/usr/lib/pkgconfig

That'd probably /opt/something in your case, I suppose.

Could you post the contents of your gtk+-2.0.pc file???

I'm using Fedora Core 2 and I've had quite a hard time compiling some programs because of missing or misplaced files... yet i just installed the damn thing.

Wich package provides that file anyway????

slakmagik · 08-09-2004, 02:28 PM

Me post mine? The contents aren't so much an issue as the location, but...

Code:

prefix=/usr
exec_prefix=${prefix}
libdir=${exec_prefix}/lib
includedir=${prefix}/include
target=x11

gtk_binary_version=2.4.0
gtk_host=i686-pc-linux-gnu

Name: GTK+
Description: GIMP Tool Kit (${target} target)
Version: 2.4.3
Requires: gdk-${target}-2.0 atk
Libs: -L${libdir} -lgtk-${target}-2.0 
Cflags: -I${includedir}/gtk-2.0

It comes from the GTK package itself, in my case, gtk+2-2.4.3-i486-1.
