Hello again!
The first step for me to be able to contribute to GIMP is making it build.
I have downloaded and compiled several libraries, but I am having problem
with glib.
I downloaded the 2.10.1 glib tarball from gnome servers, and ran
./configure, make, make install succesfully (well at least it appeared that
way). However, when I run the ./configure it fails when it checks glib
version.
The strange thing is that when I run glib-config --version, it spits out
1.-something. That's weird isn't it?
I have a Mandriva 2006 Free Edition and it is a very "default" installation,
i.e. I guess there is no problem with not passing any arguments to
./configure, since mandriva uses the default /usr/local/-path for stuff.
While I'm at it, why do you have to type ./configure? Isn't ./ just the name
for the current directory?
I am quite new to linux, and this is my first attempt to compile anything
this big with this much dependencies.
Does anyone know why it gimp/configure doesn't identify the fresh
from-source-installation of glib 2.10.1?
(And btw, is this the right place to ask this question?)
Sincerly,
Martin Nordholts, Sweden
