Hi,
I am trying to compile NGL (downloaded the bundled package from
http://home.gna.org/ngl/download.html) under debian 3.0r2 (kernel 2.4.26) gcc
3.3. When I run
./configure in .../ngl-0.7.10/ I get the following output (I just included the
last few lines) :
...
checking for XF86VidModeSwitchToMode in -lXxf86vm... yes
checking for libpng-config... no
configure: error: "FIXME: see config/libpng.m4 for what's missing"
Do you have any idea what could be wrong?
Try an 'apt-get install libpng-dev' then ./configure again.
Since you're running a distro which provides all dependencies, you don't
need the bundle, the bare NGL and NUI source trees will do. Use 'apt-get
install lib<whatsmissing>-dev'.
What I really want to do is compile the examples and start changing them to get
a feel for NGL and
NUI.
Also, can I just drop the nui-0.7.10/ directory in .../ngl-bundle-0.7.10/,
rename it to nui/,and
compile the whole thing at once? Will that work? I read it somewhere in a doc
and want to make
sure it is up-to-date ;-). So that I won't have to compile them seperately.
This is a very old tarball, I'm about to wrap another up. Please check
the code from CVS, it's easy and you'll get the real NGL and NUI. See
https://gna.org/cvs/?group=ngl
