Hi All . Today i download cheops source code and when i type ./configure returns me this error :
Quote:
checking for gnome-config... no
checking for gnomeConf.sh file in /usr/local/lib... not found
configure: error: Could not find the gnomeConf.sh file that is generated by gnome-libs install
Is there any way to install cheops in KDE ? Do you know any solution for this problem ?
Also if now im going to ./configure the source code i get this back :

Install cd, disk 1, slackware/l/gtk+-1.2.10-i486-4.tgz
Also required : slackware/l/glib-1.2.10-i486-3.tgz
Seems you have an incomplete OS install.
All the packages in " slackware/l/ " are useful.
.....
About the binary package :
My mistake ... it is packed into a folder.
You can just do :
tar xvf cheops-0.61.tar.gz (or tar xvf cheops-0.61.tgz)
And # cp usr/local/bin/cheops /usr/local/bin/
.....
Hmm i install gtk+-1.2.10-i486-4.tgz and glib-1.2.10-i486-3 was already installed..Then i run ./configure and this is what returned to me again..

No problems on a modern Linux with that one.
Is still used for Ubuntu Hardy 8.04 (LTS).
.....
Probably more than one version of the 1999 style cheops-0.61.
Your version may assume the "1999 different gtk file locations"
in e.g. /usr/include/ . ( Was changed when gtk2 appeared.)
The version "0.61" I found: configure is not even checking for gtk.
And it cannot be compiled. May require gcc-2.95 ? Or is buggy ?

Well, it seems cheops doesn't like the /usr/bin/gtk-config
in Slackware 12 , 12.1 , 12.2 . But easy to build cheops-ng
on a different Linux, and create a Slackware package :
'cheops-ng-0.2.3sl122.i586.tgz'. Click my name and send a mail,
to get the package, 508 kB in a return mail.
