Hi,
I would like to know what packages are needed for the
installation of gtk.
I am unable to compile gtk. every one package asks for others
packages and the list goes on...
i want to install X windows, GTK, GPE packages.
GPE needs GTK, so trying to install gtk. but gtk needs so many
other packages.
each package down the order some more......
So far i have installed
1) xlibs
2) zlib
3) glib
4) pango
5) atk
6) tiff
7) libpng
8) libjpeg
9) expat lib
10) xft --> cannot compile
God only knows how many more are needed ?
Does anyone know what packages needed to be intsalled and in what
order ?.
Simple Steps will help people like me.
I dont understand why Xft, fontconfig, freetype are requried ?.
Can anyone let me know why each package is needed are what does it
do ?.
A standard GTK needs what all packages. i suspect i have already
installed too many redundant packages.
Actually let me know what is absolutely neccessary packages needed ?
The main steps are X Window -> GLib -> GTK+. And Gnome is based on GTK+. I
don't know what is GPE.
Others are all dependencies.
If you want to know what they are for, you can go to their respective
homepage to get some knowledge about it.
xft has a compilation problem related to Freetype2, which can be solved this
way:
