Before I post my problem, I have Mandrake 10.0 Official Download Edition, with it's original kernel 2.6.3-7mdk.
I downloaded amarok-1.2-beta1 from rpm.pbone.net, and I also downloaded various packages of gstreamer-0.8, namely
Code:
gstreamer-plugins-0.8.4-2mdk
gstreamer-mpeg-0.8.4-2mdk
gstreamer-tools-0.8.4-0.1mdk
libgstreamer-plugins0.8-0.8.4-2mdk
gstreamer-audio-formats-0.8.4-2mdk
libgstreamer0.8-0.8.4-0.1mdk
gstreamer-vorbis-0.8.4-2mdk
This is the output of the command
Code:
rpm -qa | grep gstreamer
They all installed with no problems. Mandrake 10.0 original comes with gstreamer 0.6 something, but amarok requires gstreamer >= 0.8.1
Then when trying to compile the amarok-1.2-beta1 source code, when I run
Code:
./configure --prefix=`kde-config --prefix`
as I read in the INSTALL file, this script cannot find a gstreamer >= 0.8.1 in my system. It says something about pkg-config, textually:
Code:
...
...
checking for pkg-config... /usr/bin/pkg-config
checking for gstreamer-0.8 >= 0.8.1... Package gstreamer-0.8 was not found in the pkg-config search path.
Perhaps you should add the directory containing `gstreamer-0.8.pc'
to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable
No package 'gstreamer-0.8' found
checking for gstreamer-plugins-0.8 >= 0.8.1... Package gstreamer-plugins-0.8 was not found in the pkg-config search path.
Perhaps you should add the directory containing `gstreamer-plugins-0.8.pc'
to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable
No package 'gstreamer-plugins-0.8' found
...
...
I updated my locate database using updatedb and after that, I couldn't find any file with .pc extension, containing the string gstreamer in its name. What's wrong? I don't know what to do, I know I have gstreamer but ./configure cannot find it to link it with amarok. And I want gstreamer, aRts is no good.
Thanks in advance
