Hey Tim,

Pango recently switched from autotools/libtool to meson/ninja and it
seems that geany-plugins can't handle that. The compile/install fails
on:
/bin/sed: can't read /opt/X11/lib/libpangocairo-1.0.la: No such file or
directory
libtool: error: '/opt/X11/lib/libpangocairo-1.0.la' is not a valid
libtool archive
/opt/X11 is a strange location, have you built your own GTK stack?
Yes, this is a linux from scratch machine. All my X11 stuff is under
/opt/X11 and this works fine, after setting up a few symlinks.
Just if that was not clear: I'm not exactly a newbie to compiling stuff
myself and I have previously successfully compiled and installed
geany-plugins and geany that way before. It's really the pango switch to
meson/ninja that might irritate some packages, as previously I never had an
issue.
Might well be that calling ./autoconf.sh fixes all that.
Worth a try, maybe something in your unusual setup confuses autofools.
No, it's really the .la files that cause the trouble, I've now found
similar reports from other packages that get into trouble when some .la
files reference other .la files that now are missing due to the switch
away from libtool. I never liked libtool, anyways..
Removing all .la files fixes the problem.
Sorry for the noise, it's really not geany related.
Bye
Tim
