xchat build error
that apparently deserves 80,700 pages on google.
i get a "fe-gtk" error. i guess its the "front end" of "gtk+" its funny, ive gone over my gtk up and down. so then i get the bright idea of using ./configure --help to just disable the error. then..... it says my dbus is broken??????? its like excuse me i went through ALOT to ensure that my dbus was NOT broken. like alot alot. now i am at a loss. i would like xchat because its more convenient for me to use than irssi. but i am not going to break my system in the name of poor coding practices on xchats part. i tryed the latest 2.8.6 and i also tryed 2.6.0 to make sure it wasnt a freak error. any ideas anyone? |
Well, since you didn't provide the actual error that I presume you received from make, it's difficult to help. You could try executing this
Code:
sed -i "s/GtkType/GType/g" src/fe-gtk/xtext.h |
i got the dbus errors to go away, but still cannot get around the fe-gtk errors. one of the google pages said they had poor coding practices. on the end of "configure" it says "type make and pray"

Did you try the sed I mentioned in my previous post? Lots of packages say type make and pray or something similar; it's (kind of) a joke. Why don't you post the actual error message you get along with 20-30 lines of output before it if the sed doesn't work. We really can't help you with your problem if we don't know what the problem is.

sed -i 's/GtkType/GType/' src/fe-gtk/xtext.{c,h}
is what fixed my error. i should of been quick to execute your random command on my LFS box =) |
