Dopey me - I sent this to the wrong list the other day. *sigh* I need a vacation. -----Forwarded Message----- I'm trying to become familiar with the build process and prerequisites for 1.3. I've got gtk2.0 and family installed. I tried to run configure for 1.3 but found I needed libart. So I installed that from ArtofCode (v2.3.3). But there isn't any libart-2.0.pc file in the distribution nor in the install directories after installation. Here is what the gimp 1.3 configure says: checking for libart-2.0... Package libart-2.0 was not found in the pkg-config search path. Perhaps you should add the directory containing `libart-2.0.pc' Are .pc files related to internationalization? I've not worked with them directly before. Aside from the file not existing before or after the libart build, pkg-config doesn't pick up the libart installation even though it's in the same directories that the gtk2.0 stuff was installed (/usr/local/gtk2.0). Is there something special I need to do for pkg-config so it finds the libart stuff? -- Michael J.
