Because of sone bad stabilityproblems with xmms, I decided to reinstall it.

 

Finding the setup at sourceforge was peace of kake, but when I tryed to configure the setup i got.

[root@znora i586]# ls
libglib1.2-1.2.10-6mdk.i586.rpm  libglib1.2-devel-1.2.10-6mdk.i586.rpm
[root@znora i586]# urpmi libglib1.2-1.2.10-6mdk.i586.rpm
The following packages have to be removed for others to be upgraded:
libglib1.2-1.2.10-11mdk.i586 (in order to install libglib1.2-1.2.10-6mdk.i586) (y/N) y

installing libglib1.2-1.2.10-6mdk.i586.rpm
removing libglib1.2-1.2.10-11mdk.i586
Preparing...                ##################################################
  1:libglib1.2             ##################################################

Ok. So I went to www.rpmfind.com and figured out that last verson of glib buildt for mandrake was v 1.2.1 or so. (at least before 1.2.2. don't remember exactly)

So I built form source v 2.3.5

[root@znora Documents]# urpmi glib-2.3.5-1.i386.rpm

The following packages have bad signatures:
glib-2.3.5-1.i386.rpm: Invalid signature (md5 (GPG) (MISSING KEY) GPG#e01260f1 NOT OK)
Do you want to continue installation ? (y/N) y
installing glib-2.3.5-1.i386.rpm
Preparing...                ##################################################
  1:glib                   ##################################################

 

I still get the same error under configuring. What have I done wrong?

Usually, when you get errors during ./configure or make, it is wanting *-devel pkgs, even though it doesn't always make that clear. You didn't show us the error messages, so I can only guess, but try to install glibc-devel.

I've tried almost every fix this board has to offer on XMMS, in the end I just removed it, between Totem and mPlayer I am pretty well covered, and it just wasn't worth the effort at one point. Of course, I was never a big WinAmp fan, so it wasn't a biggy to me, if you are then I hope someone here can shed some light for you.
