Package gtk+-2.0 was not found in the pkg-config search path. Perhaps you should add the directory containing `gtk+-2.0.pc' to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable No package 'gtk+-2.0' found configure: error: Library requirements (gtk+-2.0 >= 1.3.7) not met; consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if your libraries are in a nonstandard prefix so pkg-config can find them. I seem to have gtk2 installed (gtk2-2.0.6-8), but not gtk+-2.0. Is there a difference? Also: I tried installing the Mozilla 1.4-4 binaries on a test system. It did not run. So, on the chance that there was an undetected dependency, I tried installing the gtk+ 2 libraries, like so: [root@xxxxxx root]# rpm -ivh gtk2-2.2.2-1.i386.rpm pango-1.2.3-1.i386.rpm glib2-2.2.2-1.i386.rpm freetype-2.1.4-2.i386.rpm error: Failed dependencies: libXrandr.so.2 is needed by gtk2-2.2.2-1 Where does one get libXrandr.so.2? Here is a question for RPM package builders: Why are there dependencies such that you can't tell the name of the package that resolves the dependency? -- Charles Curley /"\ ASCII Ribbon Campaign Looking for fine software \ / Respect for open standards and/or writing?
