pkg-config can't find installed package
Hi. I am trying to install geany. When I do ./configure,I get the following message
Code:
which: no svn in (/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/sbin:/usr/sbin:/bin:/usr/bin) |
It compiles fine for me. Where do you have that gtk+-2.8.x installed ? Did you compile it yourself ?
I have 'gtk+2-2.8.20-i486-1.tgz' that came with slackware, and it configures and compiles just fine using that. Also, are you using the svn or release version of geany ? (I used release) EDIT: I didn't even know about geany until now. Glad you brought it up, seems to be a very nice IDE ... just what I was looking for :) |
Hi. I also have the gtk+ 2.0 slack version. It's in /etc/gtk-2.0. I'm trying to compile geany from source since the most recent slack package I could find was .7. I really want to use geany because it seems so light which is what I need since I run on a 300mhz celly.

I would reinstall that package ('gtk+2-2.8.20-i486-1.tgz') just to make sure.
If that doesn't work then try what it suggests and set 'PKG_CONFIG_PATH' to wherever gtk is installed. Code:
export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=gtk-path-goes-here |
Hi. I tried both of those options,and the same thing still happens. I have gtk+2 installed to /etc/gtk-2.0. I did
Code:
export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/etc/gtk-2.0 |
Are you sure that's where it is installed ?
That would be a very odd place for it to be installed, a place it doesn't belong. (some files from the package exist in /etc, but that's not where it is installed) It's installed in /usr To check if the package is installed look in your /var/log/packages for it. Also check that the file /usr/lib/gtk+-2.0.pc exists. |
Hi. I do have that file in /usr/lib. Where exactly should I be pointing pkg-config.
|
I think to /usr
Did you reinstall 'gtk+2-2.8.20-i486-1.tgz' ? |
Hi. I did reinstall the package. Right now I am doing
Code:
export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/usr Code:
FILE LIST: Code:
checking for PACKAGE... configure: error: Package requirements (gtk+-2.0 >= 2.6.0) were not met: |
Is there a file called xrender.pc in '/usr/lib/pkgconfig' ? (there should be ... there is for me)
Also, do you have all these installed: Quote:

Hi. I do not have the xrender file. However,I'm not sure what to do since all searches showed that xrender was old and had some vulnerabilities. I could not find any xrender package for slackware. I checked,and I do have all other packages.
|
xrender might be a part of x11 ? Anyone know which package it is a part of ? I don't have time to look right now. Reinstall all the packages in the x directory on the DVD/CD, it should be in one of them ... or check them one by one.
|
Hi. I had to install x11-devel to get it to work. Thanks for your help.
|
Great ... no problem :)
