cheapo_comp_gee · #1 12th July 2005, 06:35 PM

Alright. Aprearently all my glib and gtk stuff is way out of date. I just upgraded to core 4. SO why didnt it upgrade ?

I had 2.6 working on Core 3 but when i upgraded to 4 Glib and gtk and stuff went to 2.0 when its suposed to be 2.6

HELP!

Heres what i get when trying to ./configure gedit

Code:

Package gtk+-2.0 was not found in the pkg-config search path.
Perhaps you should add the directory containing `gtk+-2.0.pc'
to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable
No package 'gtk+-2.0' found
configure: error: Package requirements (
        glib-2.0 >= 2.6.0
        gtk+-2.0 >= 2.6.0
        gtksourceview-1.0 >= 1.2.0
        libgnomeui-2.0 >= 2.6.0
        libglade-2.0 >= 2.4.0
        eel-2.0 >= 2.6.0
        libgnomeprintui-2.2 >= 2.6.0
) were not met.

When i try to install gtk and gliv and all the other stuff it doesnt work! I get errors on make.

Please help me!

On my FC4 i386 machine:
rpm -q glib
glib-1.2.10-16

rpm -q gtk+
gtk+-1.2.10-39

Is that what yours says?

exactly

Have an answer?

gedit is also included on the FC4 cdroms/dvd
But do you have the other requirements too?

Not my point

I think what we don't understand is your remark that "its supposed to be 2.6". One interpretation is that by the normal process of installing and updating, you got glib-2.6 on your FC3 machine and you expected the same to happen when you went to FC4. However, I updated my FC3 machine today and I have /usr/lib/glib-2.0. The way library files and rpms are named is screwy, so perhaps I don't understand your question. What particular file or rpm did you have on FC3 that provided 2.6 ? Did it come from the normal installation and update? i386 or 64 ?

The way gtk is numbered is a little confusing. On www.gtk.org, it's all just gtk+-whatever-version-number. However, in Fedora Core there is a separation between versions < 2 (which seem to all get called gtk+ and glib) and versions > 2 (which seem to all get called gtk2 and glib2). (That's my guess, anyway).

To get gtk+-2.0 installed, try installing the rpms for gtk2 and gtk2-devel; to get glib-2.0 installed, try installing glib2 and glib2-devel. First check to see whether you have these, via:

rpm -qa | grep gtk
rpm -qa | grep glib

and see what lists. If you don't have gtk2 and gtk2-devel, or glib2 and glib2-devel, then, as root, do

yum install gtk2 gtk2-devel glib2 glib2-devel

Hope that works.

I dont remember what rpm i used..or tar.gz for that metter...so long ago..

But yea it was working with 2.6 and when i "upgraded" to 4 it somehow went to 2.0...

So odd eh?

No it didnt come with the normal installation.

i386

If yum is not working, you can just go here:

http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pu...s/Fedora/RPMS/

scroll down, and click on glib2-2.6.4-1.i386.rpm, glib2-devel-2.6.4-1.i386.rpm, gtk2-2.6.7-4.i386.rpm, and gtk2-devel-2.6.7-4.i386.rpm, and save them to disk.

These are also on the installation CDs, though I don't know exactly which of the four they're on.

what's the difference between directly coding gtk api using C and using glade?
