After installing Helios, I seem to be unable to compile GTK programs. I
didn't have this problem with Venus, nor with SuSE 6.2, which I ran for
a few days between the two Mandrake versions. I have installed just about
every development file off the CD (I had planned to include the output of
"rpm -qa | grep devel", but it's too long). As for GTK, I get this:
[marler@starbaby marler]$ rpm -qa | grep gtk
gtk+10-1.0.6-6mdk
gtk-engines-0.5-16mdk
rep-gtk-0.5-1
gtk+-1.2.3-15mdk
gtk+-devel-1.2.3-15mdk
pygtk-0.6.2-5mdk
gtkglarea-1.2-2mdk
pygtk-libglade-0.6.2-5mdk
This is part of the error message I got when running the configure script
of gperiodic:
checking for gtk-config... (cached) /usr/bin/gtk-config
checking for GTK - version >= 1.2.1... no
*** Could not run GTK test program, checking why...
*** The test program failed to compile or link. See the file config.log
*** for the exact error that occured. This usually means GTK was
*** incorrectly installed or that you have moved GTK since it was
*** installed. In the latter case,you may want to edit the gtk-config
*** script: /usr/bin/gtk-config
configure: error: Cannot find GTK: Is gtk-config in path?
My path of course, includes /usr/bin; gtk-config is there.
I can't find anything meaningful in config.log, likely due to my own
shortcomings. I've scoured the list archives, but have been unable to
resolve the problem. I'd appreciate any guidance.
