scoopy Posted March 6, 2003 Report Share Posted March 6, 2003 Seeing I could not find a rpm, I tried to compile Lobster 1.2.0 source and got this: checking for gtk-config... no checking for GTK - version >= 1.2.0... no *** The gtk-config script installed by GTK could not be found *** If GTK was installed in PREFIX, make sure PREFIX/bin is in *** your path, or set the GTK_CONFIG environment variable to the *** full path to gtk-config. configure: error: GTK is required! [root@localhost lopster-1.2.0]# But I do have gtk> 1.2.0 installed and running? [root@localhost scoopy]# rpm -qa | grep gtk gtk+2.0-2.0.6-8mdk libgtkhtml2_0-2.0.1-1mdk libgtk+-x11-2.0_0-2.0.6-8mdk libgtk+2.0_0-2.0.6-8mdk Where would I enter the full path to gtk-config and where do I locate this gtk-config file in my LM 9.0 system? thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
qnr Posted March 6, 2003 Report Share Posted March 6, 2003 Well, you can find out where it is with sh-2.05b$ which gtk-config /usr/bin/gtk-config or sh-2.05b$ whereis gtk-config gtk-config: /usr/bin/gtk-config /usr/man/man1/gtk-config.1 as far as checking your version and path, just do sh-2.05b$ gtk-config --version 1.2.10 sh-2.05b$ gtk-config --prefix /usr This is just general, I don't see why it wouldn't be finding it....

beesea Posted March 6, 2003 Report Share Posted March 6, 2003 you need the gtk-devel (or libgtk-devel, i can't remember) packages in order to compile with gtk. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scoopy Posted March 6, 2003 Author Report Share Posted March 6, 2003 thanks for the quick reply and those tips qnr, I get gtk-config: command not found My next hunch was what beesea suggests, which I am working on. I am trying to find the dev package that goes with it, but more problems, I lose my connection, and rpmfind is overloaded at this time. I'll let you know how I make out with the dev packages asap.

qnr Posted March 6, 2003 Report Share Posted March 6, 2003 Sorry, forgot about Mandrake having the seperate development RPMs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scoopy Posted March 7, 2003 Author Report Share Posted March 7, 2003 Not having any luck here. The only mandrake gtk dev rpm I can find is libgtk+2.0_0-devel-2.0.6-8mdk and I get the same messages as above after installing it. RPMfind.net only shows PLD's gtk+2-devel-2.1.0-0.i686.rpm but it wanted its own gtk+2 plus a doc rpms. Figured I better not do this. Maybe I should stick with the Donkey--- Nah, gotta keep trying now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beesea Posted March 7, 2003 Report Share Posted March 7, 2003 The only mandrake gtk dev rpm I can find is libgtk+2.0_0-devel-2.0.6-8mdk and I get the same messages as above after installing it. that's because gtk2 isn't compatible with gtk1.2. you'll need the 1.2 devel package and i'm positive its on one of your cds. just keep looking and you'll find it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scoopy Posted March 7, 2003 Author Report Share Posted March 7, 2003 Thanks beesea, that did it. (and was on cd 2, along with libglib 1.2-dev-1.2.10-6mdk , which was also needed) From what I saw there were files from both gtk and gtk 2 on my system. I knew gtk was running fine seeing that the gimp works, and I was thinking the version 2 was installed over a version 1, but I guess this is 2 separate gtk's running independant which led to the confusion.

Guest Texstar Posted March 7, 2003 Report Share Posted March 7, 2003 You can try the rpm for lopster 1.2.0. http://ftp.ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/distribut...0-1tex.i586.rpm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
