Hi
In the December 2009 mail archives, Cliffhanger at gardener.com reported a
problem compiling gir-repository-0.6.5. William Immendorf replied that 'make'
was looking for the GConf library in /usr/lib and suggested a symlink to point
/usr/lib/libgconf.so to /opt/gnome/lib/libgconf.so.
This fixes the problem reported by Cliffhanger but the package does not compile
because it cannot find libgnome-keyring.so and lingnome-menu.so.
Rather than setting up more symlinks, I set the LD_LIBRARY_PATH variable to
/opt/gnome/lib which seems to cure the problem. However there are still a
number of error messages during the make. These include, but are not restricted
to:
/usr/include/freetype2/freetype/config/ftconfig.h:323: syntax error, unexpected
'{', expecting ',' or ';'
/usr/include/freetype2/freetype/config/ftconfig.h:327: syntax error, unexpected
identifier
/usr/include/freetype2/freetype/config/ftconfig.h:327: unexpected character `'
/usr/bin/g-ir-scanner -v --namespace PangoX --nsversion=1.0
and
In file included from <stdin>:37:
/usr/include/gtk-2.0/gdk/gdkx.h:82:28: error: gdkprivate-x11.h: No such file or
directory
/usr/include/gtk-2.0/gdk/gdkx.h:83:27: error: gdkscreen-x11.h: No such file or
directory
My questions -
1) Is setting the LD_LIBRARY_PATH variable a correct solution to get make to
see the /opt/gnome/lib libraries and
2) are the errors reported above serious enough to cause the package not to
function correctly?
Thanks
jb
