Installing GTKtalog

[timothykaine]

Has anyone installed GTKtalog on a GNOME2 system?

This is a two parter. GTKtalog 1.0.0 and earlier apparently requires gnome-libs 1 but wont run on GNOME2. So it required the gnomeconf.sh file that GNOME2 doesnt provide. Any ideas on getting this to install?

Also. GTKtalog 1.0.1 or later, I cannot get to install, and I get a list of hundreds of "interface.c" errors during the Make stage. During the configure stage, it seems to go fine, but says in the middle:

"Package gnome was not found in the pkg-config search path.
Perhaps you should add the directory containing `gnome.pc'
to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable
No package 'gnome' found
Package gnome was not found in the pkg-config search path.
Perhaps you should add the directory containing `gnome.pc'
to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable
No package 'gnome' found"

I need one or the other of these on my system, and cant now that Ive upgraded. Please help.

If you had gnome.pc, it should reside in /usr/lib/pkgconfig.

Have a look in /usr/lib/pkgconfig to see what gnome related .pc files you have.

You can search G4L for 'gnome.pc' to hopefully find out what package you need to install that contains that file.

Didnt find anything that included the gnome.pc file, only ones that included a libgail-gnome.pc file.

Anyone have any other ideas? Anyone out there have a package with this file?

It could be you need the gnome-devel package. Check to see if you have it installed.

rpm -qa | grep gnome
