tyme Posted June 3, 2003 Report Share Posted June 3, 2003 it would appear that gnome-print provides gnome-print http://www.rpmfind.net//linux/RPM/mandrake...-2mdk.i586.html :shock: :lol: addition: although i couldn't find a gnome-print-devel for mandrake which you may need, but here are the rpmfind results: http://www.rpmfind.net/linux/rpm2html/sear....&system=&arch= Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aru Posted June 3, 2003 Report Share Posted June 3, 2003 IMHO, in case you don't find the 'devel' one, you can compile from sources the gnome-print package; then it should yield the gnome-print and the gnome-print-devel, as *always* happens with source packages.

aru Posted June 3, 2003 Report Share Posted June 3, 2003 I've tried to see if that src package provides the devel one, but I couldn't do it using the TAGS remotely (as usually happens :sad: ); so I guess that you'll need to download and compile it to see if it produces the devel rpm or not. Ofcourse you can extract the spec file first to see if there is defined that devel package (but at any case you'll have to download it): ~$ rpm2cpio gnome-print-0.37-2mdk.src.rpm | cpio -i *.spec ~$ grep -i devel !$ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aru Posted June 3, 2003 Report Share Posted June 3, 2003 Ohhhh!!!! :shock: I know that I'm going a bit offtopic on this thread, so sorry! but... err... I... have... a new trick for my tricks-library :shock: You can know what packages are created from a source rpm w/o compiling it and w/o reading directly the speck file by: [warning "tips&tricks" mode enabled] ~$ rpm2cpio ~/tmp/attr-2.0.8-1mdk.src.rpm | cpio -i *.spec 127 blocks ~$ rpm -q --specfile !$ rpm -q --specfile *.spec attr-2.0.8-1mdk libattr1-2.0.8-1mdk libattr1-devel-2.0.8-1mdk ~$ ["tips&tricks" mode disabled] :mrgreen: :D It's a pity that it cannot be done remotely, so you have to download the source rpm. Test it on that gnome-print src package and tell me if it works :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Scrimpshire Posted June 3, 2003 Report Share Posted June 3, 2003 Unabashed compliment mode enabled Aru: You should write a book or a tutorial or pop into the thread I made in the Tips and Tricks forum and tell us everything you know. Your knowledge of bash scripting is unbelievable. Any time I have a scripting question, I wish I had an Instant Aru around, because I know you'll know the answer. I would give my left arm to have the knowledge of scripting that you do (note: 'give my left arm' is an American expression and is actually not meant to be taken literally by those whose native language is not Americanized-English) Unabashed compliment mode disabled Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aru Posted June 3, 2003 Report Share Posted June 3, 2003 I only can say thanks and You don't need an "Instant Aru around", you only have to read: Bash Reference Manual Advanced Bash-Scripting Guide And ofcourse don't be affraid of man pages ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tyme Posted June 3, 2003 Report Share Posted June 3, 2003 Advanced Bash-Scripting Guide this one is very helpful. i used it when i was writing linux scripts. and i posted here quite a few times to get help from aru. anyways...what was this thread originally about? oh yeah, gimp-print. did that get resolved? :wink: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ramfree17 Posted June 4, 2003 Author Report Share Posted June 4, 2003 ill check when i get home tonight. is GNOME-PRINT really the same as gnome-print? thanks guys. ciao! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aru Posted June 4, 2003 Report Share Posted June 4, 2003 is GNOME-PRINT really the same as gnome-print? I think so OK, I did the dirtiy work for you, I've downloaded that source package (gnome-print) and I've run my trick; the compiled package you are looking for is libgnomeprint15-devel ~$ rpm -q --specfile gnome-print.spec gnome-print-0.37-2mdk libgnomeprint15-0.37-2mdk libgnomeprint15-devel-0.37-2mdk a further check: ~$ echo $COOKER ftp://ftp.lip6.fr/pub/linux/distributions/mandrake-devel/cooker/cooker/Mandrake/RPMS ~$ rpm -qp --qf "%{DESCRIPTION}n" ${COOKER}/libgnomeprint15-devel-0.37-2mdk.i586.rpm You should install the libgnomeprint-devel package if you would like to develop GNOME applications that will use the GNOME printing facilities. You don't need to install the libgnomeprint-devel package if you just want to use the GNOME desktop environment. ~$ Yes, that looks like the package you need Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ramfree17 Posted June 4, 2003 Author Report Share Posted June 4, 2003 i cant say i understand what you did but thanks! ill try it tonight. ciao! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ramfree17 Posted June 5, 2003 Author Report Share Posted June 5, 2003 now this is really a puzzler for me checking for gtkhtml < 1.1... Unknown library `gtkhtml'Unknown library `gtkhtml' checking for pkg-config... /usr/bin/pkg-config Package gtkhtml-1.1 was not found in the pkg-config search path. Perhaps you should add the directory containing `gtkhtml-1.1.pc' to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable No package 'gtkhtml-1.1' found Package gtkhtml-1.1 was not found in the pkg-config search path. Perhaps you should add the directory containing `gtkhtml-1.1.pc' to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable No package 'gtkhtml-1.1' found checking for gtkhtml >= 1.1... checking for gtk_html_new in -lgtkhtml-1.1... no configure: error: Cannot find gtkhtml-1.1. See the README and config.log for more info. but $ rpm -qa | grep libgtkhtml libgtkhtml2_0-devel-2.2.0-2mdk libgtkhtml2_0-2.2.0-2mdk libgtkhtml1.1_3-1.1.10-2.1mdk $ rpm -ql libgtkhtml1.1_3 /usr/lib/libgtkhtml-1.1.so.3 /usr/lib/libgtkhtml-1.1.so.3.0.5 /usr/share/doc/libgtkhtml1.1_3-1.1.10 /usr/share/doc/libgtkhtml1.1_3-1.1.10/AUTHORS /usr/share/doc/libgtkhtml1.1_3-1.1.10/COPYING i was trying to edit /etc/ld.so.conf but found out that /usr/lib is included by default. any tips/suggestions? ciao!

tyme Posted June 5, 2003 Report Share Posted June 5, 2003 why don't you search for the file gtkhtml-1.1.pc that's what it says it needs: Perhaps you should add the directory containing `gtkhtml-1.1.pc' to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable what really confuses me is: checking for gtkhtml < 1.1... it's looking for a gtkhtml version less than 1.1, or i'm dyslexic...but it's complaining that it's not finding a file which would imply that it wants a version = (or possibly >) 1.1.........

aru Posted June 5, 2003 Report Share Posted June 5, 2003 it's looking for a gtkhtml version less than 1.1, or i'm dyslexic...but it's complaining that it's not finding a file which would imply that it wants a version = (or possibly >) 1.1......... I think you are right, it is looking for a particular version. In cooker you have: libgtkhtml-3.0_1-3.0.2-2mdk.i586.rpm libgtkhtml-3.0_1-devel-3.0.2-2mdk.i586.rpm libgtkhtml1.1_3-1.1.10-4mdk.i586.rpm libgtkhtml1.1_3-devel-1.1.10-4mdk.i586.rpm libgtkhtml2_0-2.3.3-1mdk.i586.rpm libgtkhtml2_0-devel-2.3.3-1mdk.i586.rpm Now you have to find out which is the right version :mrgreen: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
