I have an odd problem. I'm installing the new GAIM. As I am using Suse 9.0, I have the build it from the ground up as a tar because the new version isn't available in RPM format for 9.0, and I am a masochist.
The key to this is installing GTK+, so I do. I'm trying to install GTK+ 2.4.0, I have download that an all of the required co-requisites. However, when I install GTK with the accompanying Pango version (1.4.0) I get:
"configure: error: Pango 1.2.0 and Xft backend is required for x11 target"
So I go on the forums to see what's going on. On another person's thread, he is advised to download that version. So I do the same, and I try it, and I get this when I configure GTK:
"checking for glib-2.0 >= 2.4.0 atk >= 1.0.1 pango >= 1.4.0... Requested 'pango >= 1.4.0' but version of Pango is 1.2.0
configure: error: Library requirements (glib-2.0 >= 2.4.0 atk >= 1.0.1 pango >= 1.4.0) not met; consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if your libraries are in a nonstandard prefix so pkg-config can find them."
What am I doing wrong?
ETA:
Somebody suggested that "It means you didn't build pango with xft support. Either you need to install some XFree86-dev-rpm type things or you need to extend your PKG_CONFIG_PATH to include /usr/X11R6/lib/pkgconfig and then reinstall pango."
How do I do that?
