i'm trying to create an installer of my program for all variants LINUX, but am having trouble with something i had hoped/though would be trivial.
how does one confirm from the shell which version of the *run-time* GTK+ libraries are installed? - pkg-config won't work since destination machine has no .pc files as there's no dev install (nor should there need to be) - platform-specific solutions do exist (e.g. "dpkg -l ..." for ubuntu, "yum install ..." on redhat, "apt-cache show ...", etc.), however i'd like the following: - platform-independent solution - version confirmed at installation of program i know i can check the version at program startup, but this is too late, i don't want to install *anything* until the target machine conforms to minimum version requirements. is this possible, or must i discover platform-specific solution for each new platform as they arise? any pointers greatly appreciated, richard
