Installing gdl (Gnome Development Library)

[ChadL]

In my attempts to install Anjuta 2, I have gotten the rest of the dependency's out of the way, but when I go to build gdl-0.6.0, it is asking me for something called lpangoft2-1.0, and the only thing Google is showing me are other people who have ran into a similar problem.
I am wondering if anyone has found a way around this problem, or knows a place to download this.

I have run ./configure, and it reported that there were no problems.

Btw, I am running Fedora Core 4 x86_64

Thank you in advance for any help you can provide.

Just install the pango and pango-devel rpm package (i386 if you compile for 32 bit or x86_64 if you compile for 64 bit architecture).
(yum install pango)

Thank you!
That let me install gdl.

The configure file for Anjuta2 is still telling me that it can not find it, but when I do a search, the file it is looking for is on my computer in about three different places, so I will play with my environmental variables a bit to see if I can get it to find them.

Good luck! If you cannot get it to compile/work just post a message again and we'll try to help you.
