Looking at my own logs for glib-2.58.3, I see a lot of moaning from meson, but it all installed ok. For glib itself (and similarly for several other libraries it installed) I have
/usr/lib/libglib-2.0.so /usr/lib/libglib-2.0.so.0 /usr/lib/libglib-2.0.so.0.5800.3 ========================================================================================================= Thank you for the reply. I got rid of error message from GObject-introspection which was pointing to previous glib version by modifying pkg-config file. However, compilation of GLib-2.58.3 was not successful in the sense that the third library file as mentioned by you was not found. Can you please help again? Thanks in advance.
