Today, I removed pkgsrc and swich back to fink again.

Build dependencies for me is:
fink install gtk+2
Looks like I am getting a corrupt file when I try this:

docbkx412.zip.

I tried downloading it from the Oasis web/ftp site and it is corrupt there. Sent the webmaster a message advising of this. Did you need DocBook support to complete the installation of the gtk+2 package?

BTW, it looks like I will have more free time this week than I originally planned on, but I will be very busy and only have time to troubleshoot a few problems.

Also, I would like to ask other folks on the list what they are using to get gtk+2 support running?


your problems sound a little bit familiar to me. When I started building OOo on my Mac a few weeks ago I stepped into the same problems with fink and gtk+.

1. During installation of gtk+2 a got a corrupt file message too though
I do not remember if it was the same file (docbkx412.zip). Ignoring this
file had no further negative impact.


Thought you would like to know that this problem appears to be fixed. A big thanks to the webmaster at OASIS.


2. Though I installed gtk+2 and other available gtk+? packages I was not
able to build mozilla until I realized that what fink did install were only the gtk+? sources. I still had to do a 'make' and 'make install' in order to really install these packages on my Mac. Before doing this pkgconfig did not show any of the gtk+? packages in the list of available packages.

I found the same situation. However, configure from gtk+-2.4.9 could not find the libraries for libtiff or libjpeg. Also, Fink did not build GTK+2 for X11. I would like a good configure line so that I can build GTK+2....

I'm not sure if I did something wrong but this was the way for me to get
gtk+? installed properly and be able to build mozilla.

It appears that Fink is broken, as the pc.in files are there so the pkg-config files will build.

Does pkgconfig show you gtk+? in the list of available packages?

It did not when I manually built all of the dependent packages. I have a written list and what order I built them in. I don't feel like deleting Fink and the /sw directory tree to run through this again (but I can.)

And thank you and the folks on this list.
