Hi all,
Today's problem (actually I've been fooling with this off and on for a
coupla weeks!) is installing Evolution 1.0.1.
I'm going the route of downloading source files from the Ximian site.
The first package that needs to be installed is
bonobo-config-0.14. When I do a
./configure
it goes through a script which runs a series of checks...All is well
until it gets to
.....
<much snipping>
checking if libtool supports shared libraries... yes
checking whether -lc should be explicitly linked in... no
creating libtool
checking for gawk... gawk
checking for glib-config... /usr/bin/glib-config
checking for GLIB - version >= 1.2.0... yes
checking for oaf-config... /etc/oaf/oaf-config.xml
checking for OAF - version >= 0.6.2... no
*** Could not run OAF 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 OAF was incorrectly
installed
*** or that you have moved OAF since it was installed. In the latter
case, you
*** may want to edit the oaf-config script: /etc/oaf/oaf-config.xml
I have a file /etc/oaf/oaf-config.xml which I would be willing to post
but a few basic questions.
What is bonobo and what is it doing?
What is OAF (I can't find it listed in any of my books) and what does it
do? Do I need a newer version?
What is going on here? (I'm a little mystified as I've got Evolution
0.13 running OK and it must use bonobo???).
Anywhow, if someone could steer me in the right direction it would be
much appreciated.
