Need glib.h

[psigourney]

I'm trying to install Quicktime on my RH7.3 system, but the make fails because it can't find glib.h, I've tried downloading gtk.rpm and glib____.rpm to get the file, but everytime I try to install it, GnoRPM says that an existing package takes precedence, can I just find that one file somewhere and stick it in an "include" directory, or does it have to be installed somehow?

Also, any ideas where I could find the file?

Install the glib development package. I'm not sure of the version in RH7.3 but in RH7.0 it's glib-devl-1.2.8-4.rpm.

The only glib* package I could find is:
glib-1.2.10-5.i386.rpm

This is from rpmfind.net

Oops! I spelled it wrong. It's glib-devel. You can get it from here (ftp://speakeasy.rpmfind.net/linux/redhat/7.2/en/os/i386/RedHat/RPMS/glib-devel-1.2.10-5.i386.rpm).
Also, before d/l and installing that RPM, make sure you have glib installed and not glib2. If you have glib2 installes, get this one (ftp://ftp.rpmfind.net/linux/redhat/7.3/en/os/i386/RedHat/RPMS/glib2-devel-2.0.1-2.i386.rpm) instead.

BTW, if you have the CD's they'll be on them. I don't know which but probably CD2 or CD3.

Ah great. :rolleyes:
I go through all this, and once I finally get it working, I find it's just an add-in so you can include quicktime when you write C programs, not a standalone QT player.

Thanks anyway. :D
