I'm using Redhat 8.0 and have downloaded and installedI all the dependencies but still get this error:

checking for glib-2.0 >= 2.4.0 atk >= 1.0.1 pango >= 1.4.0... Requested 'glib-2.0 >= 2.4.0' but version of GLib is 2.0.6

configure: error: Library requirements (glib-2.0 >= 2.4.0 atk >= 1.0.1 pango >= 1.4.0) 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'm not sure where to put links, or export paths etc. I have a feeling that the other old dependencies are interferring with the new.

Please help me to fix this .

So, you really upgraded the old glib 2.0.6 from Red Hat Linux 8.0 to something newer than 2.4.0? Can you demonstrate that a sufficient glib2 version is installed by listing the shared library files and the corresponding pkgconfig file?

Hi,
After getting yelled at for having a really old distro, and having to deal with this disaster, I decided to upgrade to Fedora 2 (the version available to me). Ran autopackage on the newest release, and all went smoothly. Sometimes it pays to upgrade.

Hmm, why couldn't you get the newest release? You realise Fedora Core 2 doesn't get any security updates these days, right? You really need to keep up with the latest releases to stay fully secure.

Bah,
There should really be a way to upgrade an installation to include things like security or am i missing something? For instance, upgrading Win 98 to Win XP?

Two reasons I went with 2. 1)The newest version at the Barnes & Noble, as well as CompUSA was on DVD, and my Linux system has only CD. 2)The large 'Bible' that came with it and was 20 bucks.

Heh, OK. You can upgrade quite easily these days actually - but it does involve downloading and burning the CDs. It's possible to do it without that (using yum) but you still have to do a huge download, so it's not much of a win.
