Thank you Larry for your help! I downloaded the package needed to get gobject-2.0, but now after typing 'pkg-config gtk+-2.0', I get a message saying that 'gnome-config' was not found. What do I have to do now?
Thanks in advance
I have no idea what this error should tell us. I have no gnome-config but I have nearly a complete gnome-desktop installed. I see this message sometimes when running configure for another gnome package, but it is just a harmless warning, gnome1 isn't needed to run gnome2 and gnome2 applications.
As said in my other posting, "gnome-config" is used as fallback in pkgconfig (for historical reasons) when package is not found. Usually it happens when you don't have some optional library/package that is checked from pkgconfig.
I'm not sure is this removed from later pkgconfigs, or is it ever planned to be removed but it's usually safe to ignore it.
