Glad to hear things are working for you.

For my own curiosity, how did you install perl-Gtk3?  I know you found it on
SBo, but not being familiar enough with Slack, I am curious to know what
commands you used to install it ( as well as its six dependencies. )

Thanks in advance.

- Robert

Ken,

GTK+3 is installed via SBo, the Slackware non-core package repository.


python3 -m pip install gtk3


GTK+3 is not a python package ...


or is the CPAN module the pip module?\


... and CPAN is the Comprehensive Perl Archive Network. Two different
scripting tools.

The SBo repo provides perl-gtk3.

Now all's well.

Keep polishing your chromebook and stay well,

Robert,

I found perl-Gtk3 on SBo (SlackBuilds.org) and installed it and its 6
dependencies.

Now CGStar builds but displays a long list of optional dependencies it
cannot find; some actually are installed. I'll run the application without
the ones not installed here and see if I need them.

Thanks for your time and effort on this issue.

Rich

Hello Rich,

Since I don't usually run Slackware, I used a Docker container to simulate
your environment.
These are the commands I ran:

# download and run a slackware container
  docker run -d --name slack vbatts/slackware:14.2 sleep inf

# install perl
  docker exec slack wget --no-check-certificate
https://slackware.uk/slackware/slackware64-14.2/slackware64/d/perl-5.22.2-x86_64-1.txz
  docker exec slack upgradepkg --install-new perl-5.22.2-x86_64-1.txz
  docker exec slack perl -V

...
  @INC:
/usr/local/lib64/perl5
/usr/local/share/perl5
/usr/lib64/perl5/vendor_perl
/usr/share/perl5/vendor_perl
/usr/lib64/perl5
/usr/share/perl5
.
# install Gtk3.pm
  docker exec slack cpan install Gtk3.pm

  ...
  Running make for X/XA/XAOC/Gtk3-0.038.tar.gz
  Warning: Prerequisite 'Cairo::GObject => 1.000' for
'XAOC/Gtk3-0.038.tar.gz' failed when processing
'XAOC/Cairo-GObject-1.005.tar.gz' with 'writemakefile => NO
'/usr/bin/perl5.22.2 Makefile.PL' returned status 512'. Continuing, but
chances to succeed are limited.
  Warning: Prerequisite 'Glib::Object::Introspection => 0.043' for
'XAOC/Gtk3-0.038.tar.gz' failed when processing
'XAOC/Glib-Object-Introspection-0.049.tar.gz' with 'writemakefile => NO --
No 'Makefile' created
  '. Continuing, but chances to succeed are limited.
XAOC/Gtk3-0.038.tar.gz
make -- NOT OK

Looks like Gtk3 requires other dependencies: Cairo-GObject and
Glib-Object-Introspection.

At this point, I gave up because 1) there are dependency issues which
aren't automatically resolving and 2) the errors I am getting seem to
differ from yours, suggesting that we don't have the same environment.

So, I cleaned up my container environment:
  docker container stop slack
  docker container rm slack
  docker image rm vbatts/slackware:14.2


For comparison, I tried installing the same module using an Ubuntu
container:

# download and run an Ubuntu container
  docker run -d --name ubuntu ubuntu sleep inf

# install perl with Gtk3 module and test
  docker exec ubuntu apt-get update
  docker exec -e DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive ubuntu apt-get install -y
libgtk3-perl
  docker exec ubuntu perl -mGtk3 -e 'print "== Hello, world!\n";'
== Hello, world!

# clean up container environment
  docker container stop ubuntu
  docker container rm ubuntu
  docker image rm ubuntu

Using an Ubuntu container, I was able to get the Gtk3 module installed and
verified that it ran.

Good luck and let us know how things go.

Regards,
- Robert

Robert,

Slackware-14.2/x86_65, perl-5.22.2-x86_64-1.

Two installation approaches:

# perl -MCPAN -e shell
cpan[1]> install Gtk3.pm
...
Files=22, Tests=0,  1 wallclock secs ( 0.05 usr  0.02 sys +  1.02 cusr  0.13 
csys =  1.22 CPU)

# cpan[2] install Gtk3.pm
...

csys =  1.22 CPU)
Result: FAIL

  /usr/bin/make test -- NOT OK
//hint// to see the cpan-testers results for installing this module, try:
  reports XAOC/Gtk3-0.038.tar.gz
Failed during this command:
 XAOC/Gtk3-0.038.tar.gz   : make_test NO

I've not before failed to install a perl module using the first approach;
tried the second approach only today.

Regards,

Rich

Hello Rich,

Can you please provide some context info, such as, what OS, what distro,
what version, what commands?

The errors for trying to install Gtk3.pm and Gtk3 are the same. The 358 line
