HI Alexandar, Thanks for your input. I tried installing shared-mime-info package. But still it is not working. Below is the snippet how I configure and build shared-mime-info and gdk-pixbuf:
cd shared-mime-info-0.90 ./configure --prefix=$WLD make make install cd .. # As of 2012-03-14, gtk git is saying: # Requested 'gdk-pixbuf-2.0 >= 2.25.2' but version of GdkPixbuf is 2.24.0 cd gdk-pixbuf ./configure --prefix=$WLD --without-libtiff # Is it worth grabbing libtiff? make make install cd .. Do I need to export any variable also?

Gdk-pixbuf optionally uses gio to do mime sniffing, which requires the shared-mime-info package to be installed. However, the configure script for gdk-pixbuf explicitly tries to sniff the mimetype for some png data, and only enables this if that worked. Are you are building and deploying gdk-pixbuf in different contexts? _______________________________________________ gtk-devel-list mailing list gtk-devel-list@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-devel-list
