I am working an a server where I need Metacity. The server (Red Hat 6.4, linux 2.6.32 x86_64) does not have it and I don't have privileges to install anything.
So I decided to compile it myself. After trying few versions, I chose Metacity 2.28.1 as meets gtk requirements.
http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/gnome/sources/metacity/
Now, However, If I try to run the configure:
./configure --prefix="/home/
(sensored)/programs/"
I get the following:
Code:
checking for METACITY... configure: error: Package requirements (gtk+-2.0 >= 2.10.0 pango >= 1.2.0 libcanberra-gtk gconf-2.0 >= 1.2.0 libstartup-notification-1.0 >= 0.7 xcomposite >= 0.2 xfixes xrender xdamage xcursor) were not met:
No package 'xdamage' found
So apparently I would need to do the following:
Somehow get the
xdamage package.
Extract it to my home folder.
And tell the configure where to find it using appropriate flags.
But...
Where can I find appropriate xdamage package?
Do I need to use RPM package manager somehow?
And which flags to use to tell the configure so that it can find the package.
Could someone point me right direction thanks
