add the applet to your panel:

I am trying to make my Fedora 9 GNOME look like the MAC OSX. I have installed the MacforLin theme. Everything is OK except for the MenuBar at the bottom. According to the installation Guide, I need to install Global Menu for my Fedora 9,

According to the Global Menu site, the Fedora 9 add/remove software has the ability of adding this menu. I have not managed to locate it.

Trying to install it manualy from the Global Menu site code.google.com/.../gnome2-globalmenu
i get error regarding the libwnck-1.0 >= 2.16.0. I got the mesaage " No package 'libwnck-1.0' found

Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you
installed software in a non-standard prefix.

Alternatively, you may set the environment variables WNCK_CFLAGS
and WNCK_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config.
See the pkg-config man page for more details."


According to my core an updated version of libwnck-1.0 >= 2.16.0 exists.

Can enybody Help me on how I may manage to install the Global menu of Fedora 9?

Thank you in advance

Try installing the libwnck development file

su
yum install libwnck-devel

Thank you very much for your reply. I have managed to install libwnck. I will now try to solve the problem with the Global Menu for Fedora 9.

[dniko]

I am still experiencing problems with the installation of Global menu in Fedora 9. Now I have got the following message:
"checking for GNOME_PANEL... no
configure: error: in `/home/dimitrios/Download/gnome-globalmenu-0.7.9':
configure: error: test for libpanelapplet-2.0 and libnotify failed. (--without-gnome-panel to disable)."

Can anybody help me on how to solve this problem?

Thank you in advance

Try

su
yum install gnome-panel-devel

is this the same package? , if so it's in the repo

[leigh@localhost ~]$ yum search globalmenu

Thanks for the suggestion.

I have written as suggested
"[root@localhost gnome-globalmenu-0.7.9]# yum install gnome-panel-devel"
and I got the message:
"Loaded plugins: refresh-packagekit
Setting up Install Process
Parsing package install arguments
Package gnome-panel-devel-2.22.2-3.fc9.i386 already installed and latest version
Nothing to do"

Then I wrote "yum search globalmenu"
and I got
"Loaded plugins: refresh-packagekit
Warning: No matches found for: globalmenu
No Matches found"

Is there any other suggestion?

Thank you in advance
