Thank you, but no, it doesn't. Or maybe it does and all should work fine if I only understood some basics... To me it mainly explains how to set up GPG (which I already have) and the bit from the Sylpheed FAQ to start installation with ./configure --enable-gpgme. I tried and uninstalled Sylpheed 0.9.2 as it doesn't work with gpgme. Then I installed gpgme. I tried the above configure command on an unpacked 0.9.1 tarball and it took quite some time doing this and that until this message came: <console> checking for GLIB - version >= 1.2.6... no *** The glib-config script installed by GLIB could not be found *** If GLIB was installed in PREFIX, make sure PREFIX/bin is in *** your path, or set the GLIB_CONFIG environment variable to the *** full path to glib-config. configure: error: Test for GLIB failed. See the file 'INSTALL' for help. </console> I don't know where GLIB was installed, but on trying to install the RPM it reads "Everything already installed"... My trivial basic question here is: Where is _my_path_? > BTW DON'T ignore the bit about reinstalling Sylpheed I didn't. That's why I don't have a working e-mail client on Linux right now... Good thing I can use The Bat! on Windows, which makes e-mailing a real joy to me. Sylpheed might be able to compete with it, whereas KMail doesn't. ;o) >> BTW, where would sylpheed - or any other program at that - store its >> system files (I haven't changed any defaults yet)? > Well I am not about to tell you where ever program on Mandrake puts its > files! I see, it's the developer's choice, and so can be anywhere. OK. *S* Thanks for your input - I'll keep on learning! :o) -- Cheers Peter "There are two infinite things, the universe and human stupidity, but I'm not quite sure about the universe yet."
