Hi,

I am trying to install gtk+-2.16.5 from sources under openSuse-11.0, (before installing unstable GIMP for UI translation). "Configure" gives no error message.
Running "make" gives this error:

I can't find how to resolve this problem. I'd be grateful for any help.

Hi,

I had installed glib-2.20.4 through a rpm built with checkinstall. I uninstalled it and re-installed glib with "make install".

I have the glib-2.0 directory in /usr/share, /usr/local/share, /usr/local/lib

The PKG-CONFIG_PATH and LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variables are empty.

I tried "export LD_LIBRARY_PATH='/usr/local/lib' && export PKG_CONFIG_PATH='/usr/local/lib' " before ./configure in the gtk+-2.16.5 directory : my problem persits.

I also added the three glib-2.0 paths in ld.so.conf, without any success.

Is this actually a glib path problem? I have the /usr/local/lib/libgio-2.0.so file...

Looks like you're not linking against the proper GLib library, make sure to setup PKG_CONFIG_PATH and LD_LIBRARY_PATH at configure time so that the right dependencies are found preferably through the use of config.site.

Hi,

glib and gtk-related .pc files are in /usr/lib/pkgconfig. In /usr/local/lib/pkgconfig I have babl.pc, gegl.pc, gio-2.0.pc, gio-unix-2.0.pc, glib-2.0.pc but no gtk.pc, probably because it is not installed yet?

I ran
PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig:/usr/lib/pkgconfig export PKG_CONFIG_PATH
and still I have this damned eroor on 'make':

The problem doesn't seem to be in pkgconfig or glib. What are these "undefined reference"?

Doug a écrit :

PKG_CONFIG_PATH needs to point to a pkconfig folder containing various .pc files.

Look in /usr/lib/pkconfig and /usr/local/lib/pkconfig and check where various glib- and gtk-related .pc files are located. You may well need both pkconfig folders. Then
PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/usr/local/lib/pkconfig:/usr/lib/pkconfig; export PKG_CONFIG_PATH; ./configure

You should be able to compile but you may not be able to run, because the program can't find this or that library which you know you have - you get a message saying "couldn't find library lib......so....."

Setting LD_LIBRARY_PATH may avoid that happening, but quite often it doesn't.
Usually it's because the program insists on looking for that library in /usr/lib when you've got it in /usr/ local (or /usr/lib64 on a 64-bit machine).
In that case, as root create absolute links from /usr/lib to all those particular library lib......so... files in /usr/local/lib (or wherever). It solves most problems.
