Dependency (GTK/Glib) compile probs

This is probably insanely simple.

I'm trying to compile 2.1.5, so I had to update glib (2.4.6) on my system which I did with '--enable-shared' config flag. All went well.

Then, gtk 2.4.9 configured (with --enable-shared) fine, but during 'make' it exists out looking for /opt/gnome/lib/libgobject-2.0.la which glib placed here: /usr/local/lib/libgobject-2.0.la

What config option do I need to tell gtk where libgobject-2.0.la is now?

I know this is really a question for GTK's mailing list, but I don't feel like budging from the cozy comform of the gimp list.

Any help appreciated! Eric Pierce

You did make sure that pkg-config picks up the right version?

BTW, --enable-shared is the default, you don't need to specify it explicitely.

Hi,

Quoting Eric Pierce :

Then, gtk 2.4.9 configured (with --enable-shared) fine, but during 'make' it exists out looking for /opt/gnome/lib/libgobject-2.0.la which glib placed here: /usr/local/lib/libgobject-2.0.la

Try running ldconfig, and making sure that the pkgconfig on your path is finding the right glib-2.0.pc file (have a look at the output of pkgconfig --libs glib-2.0), then check your PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable.

It looks like you'll need to re-run configure anyway...

Cheers, Dave.

i think running ldconfig fixes this.

others have suggested that you make sure about your pkg-config stuff. there is a script, available on www.gimp.org that sets this for you:

http://www.gimp.org/source/howtos/gimpenv

with the console you are doing the building with, type "source gimpenv" and all the bothersome paths get set.
