Compile/Install problem with glib-1.2.10 and gtk+1.2.10

Compile/Install problem with glib-1.2.10 and gtk+1.2.10

Post by jrj.. » Wed, 09 Jan 2002 14:25:54



Hello,

    I am a somewhat experienced Linux user.  I am trying to install
gEDA, an electronic circuit design tool, which needs glib 1.2.3, gtk+
1.2.3, and guile 1.4.  I downloaded the latest stable versions of glib
1.2.10 and gtk+ 1.2.10.  Here are my steps (as per the INSTALL file):

glib 1.2.10:
    [normal user]
    gzip -cd glib-1.2.10.tar.gz | tar xf -
    cd glib-1.2.10
    ./configure
    [root]
    mv /usr/include/glib-1.2/glib.h /usr/include/glib-1.2/glib.h.old
    mv /usr/include/glib-1.2/gmodule.h
/usr/include/glib-1.2/gmodule.h.old
    make install
** No errors reported.
    running /usr/local/bin/glib-config --version results in 1.2.10

gtk+ 1.2.10:
    [root]
    gzip -cd gtk+-1.2.10.tar.gz | tar xf -
    cd gtk+-1.2.10
    ./configure
** Output of this is attached.

Like the glib instructions said, I got rid of the glib.h and gmodule.h
files.
I do not know how to remove the previous glib versions that are on my
system.  I am running Red Hat 7.1.
I am not sure if the problem is that there are multiple versions of glib
on my system.  Do I need to remove all of them?  How do I do this?

If that is not the issue, does anyone know how I can get gtk+ to see
I do have the glib-1.2.10 installed?  Thanks for any help!

Jared

You should be able to build an rpm with:

 rpm -ta /path/to/glib-1.2.10.tar.gz

At least it works that way for both glib and gtk+ on a RH6.2 system.

The reason is you haven't remove or move old glib libraries in /usr/lib,
and those are libglib.*. And your compilation w/ default configure
installed stuffs in /usr/local tree, and libs in /usr/lib are checked
first. Since glib and gtk+ are very basic libraries used by so many other
programs, perhaps upgrading your system to 7.2 can be a better solution.

Regards.

1. recompilation of glib-1.2.8, gtk+1.2.8 for Redhat 6.2

Hi!
Trying this newsgroup as I didn't get any response in alt.os.linux:
Im new to recompiling downloaded source code in Linux.

I have Redhat 6.2, and have rpm-ed glib-1.2.8 and gtk-1.2.8 on it.
I have to recompile glib/gtk in order to achieve something else in Ada.
I have downloaded the tar.gz files for glib/gtk 1.2.8, and put them on
/root/prog, and untared them there.

What I experience is that the glib/gtk compiling/installing leaves no error
messages (as far as I can tell),
but when I progress to the Ada recompiling, that recompiling asks for files
with the pattern:
gdk*.o, gtk*.o and glib*.o
to be linked in during the process.

In the Gtk installing directory I find several gtk/gdk-*.o files that I have
copied in to the directory that the Ada installations expects and the Ada
installations looks happier, but I can't find any file with the pattern with
the pattern glib*.o so it still doesn't succed.

My question in this forum is; should there be some glib*.o files after the
installation of glib based on the tar.gz files?
Do anyone have a good suggestion as to why I don't get any such files?

Frank
