Done that, installed tons of .dev (and other) packages, but
whatever I do, it will not get past the ./configure
stage.
The stage where things go wrong is:
checking for gnome-config... /usr/bin/gnome-config
checking for GNOME - version >= 1.2.0... yes
checking for additional GNOME modules... vfs
checking for oaf-config... /usr/bin/oaf-config
checking for OAF - version >= 0.6.2... no
When I run oaf, I get:
$ /usr/bin/oaf-config --version
So the configure script is obviousli wrong.
Looking at the conftest.c program the ./configure script generated,
it is obviously wrong:
it declares:
int major, minor, micro;
but later uses:
if ((liboaf_major_version != 0) ||
(liboaf_minor_version != 6) ||
(liboaf_micro_version != 5))
So it looks to mi like an error in the ./configure script
(that script has nearly the same .c file in it)
$ md5sum ./configure ../galeon-0.10.6.tar.gz
8fa8cc7ca45b3d090029834a449ffbe1 ./configure
eda0f7dc904298dcdff09e871825eaf7 ../galeon-0.10.6.tar.gz
Am I going mad?
Below is the more complete ./configure log (from after it tests for
the oaf version):
checking for GNOME - version >= 1.2.0... yes
checking for additional GNOME modules... vfs
checking for oaf-config... /usr/bin/oaf-config
checking for OAF - version >= 0.6.2... no
*** Could not run OAF test program, checking why...
*** The test program failed to compile or link. See the file config.log for the
*** exact error that occured. This usually means OAF was incorrectly installed
*** or that you have moved OAF since it was installed. In the latter case, you
*** may want to edit the oaf-config script: /usr/bin/oaf-config
checking for gconf-config... /usr/bin/gconf-config
checking for GCONF - version >= 0.12... yes
checking for libglade-config... no
checking for libglade... no
checking for orbit-config... /usr/bin/orbit-config
checking for ORBit - version >= 0.5.1... yes
checking for orbit-idl... /usr/bin/orbit-idl
checking for gdk-pixbuf-config... no
checking for GDK_PIXBUF - version >= 0.9.0... no
*** The gdk-pixbuf-config script installed by GDK_PIXBUF could not be found
*** If GDK_PIXBUF was installed in PREFIX, make sure PREFIX/bin is in
*** your path, or set the GDK_PIXBUF_CONFIG environment variable to the
*** full path to gdk-pixbuf-config.
checking for PR_Init in -lnspr4... yes
checking for PL_strcmp in -lplc4... yes
checking for PL_NewHashTable in -lplds4... yes
checking for xpcom... yes
checking for gdk_superwin_get_type in -lgtksuperwin... no
checking for gtk_moz_embed_get_type in -lgtkembedmoz... no
