Ok, I'v been trying to compile and install ogle, i got all to work aside from the ogle GUI, it says the libglade isn't installed (when i know it is), Anyone got any ideas?

Do you have the correct version and is it in your path?

I am just using the stock installation of slack on the libglade and its the version that comes with slackware 10.0

Hi,
Try creating a link to libglade-2.0.so.0.0.4, (the default libglade library in slack) which can be found at /usr/include/libglade-2.0/

Name the link libglade.so, and keep it in the same directory.
Then try the ./configure again..
No promises that this will work, but I have used this same method with various programs that throw up the same fault when the configure script looks for libraray names.

Why you don't download a libglade newer version and compile and install it?

Other thing when you configure anything... and that can be your problem right now... if it doesn't is an advise for the future... better make it with ./configure --prefix=/usr ... unless you have other instructions.. in same cases ./configure uses /usr/local and don't use some /usr stuff... try to configure ogle with ./configure --prefix=/usr ... if it don't work download the libglade and install it (configuring it the same way (and always))
