Probably because Debian 3.0 Woody (released in summer 2002) consists of 5+ years old software (Linux 2.2, XFree86 4.1, Gnome 1.4, ...) and to install Gtk+ 2.10 there one essentialy has to upgrade the system completely (maybe this is finally a situation where Sergei's scripts could come handy -- if Gtk+ 2.10 can be built and works with XFree86 4.1, which I would not bet on). And to upgrade the system completely -- to Sarge (3.1) -- is also what I strongly recommend. > 2007/1/1, Jorge Andrade <ai_andrade@xxxxxxxxx>: > checking for GLIB - version >= 2.5.7... > *** 'pkg-config --modversion glib-2.0' returned 2.6.6, but GLIB (2.6.4) > *** was found! Jorge: This means you have currently at least *three* different GLib versions installed at once (Debian's, 2.6.4 and 2.6.6), or some residua of these installations, in other words a total mess. Please start by deinstallation of all the libs you compiled manually (and remove them thoroughly, e.g. a forgotten glib-2.0.pc can cause a lot of confusion). Then (a) Upgrade to Sarge. Not only because Debian stopped to release security updates for Woody half a year ago and not only because you automatically get Gtk+ 2.6 with Sarge. (b) If you insist on continuing this adventure in Woody, choose a non-system location (e.g. somewhere in your home), set up the environment and install everything there according to http://mail.gnome.org/archives/gtk-list/2006-December/msg00113.html Yeti -- http://physics.muni.cz/~yeti/pf2007.png _______________________________________________ gtk-list mailing list gtk-list@xxxxxxxxx http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-list
