Really old thread, but I now found out what to do, and how to make Gibbon working on my system. (Arch Linux). Maybe I will make a PKGBUILD file for it later.
Gibbon is depending on gsettings-desktop-schemas. Your system probably have a deb/rpm/pacman for that. gibbon comes with a .xml file. bg.gibbon.gschema.xml. In my build this was installed in /usr/local/share/glib-2.0/schemas/ (after 'make install') Move this file to the directory containing the gsettings-desktop-schemas .xml files. On my system they are in /usr/share/glib-2.0/schemas/org.gnome.desktop.<...>.xml So: $ sudo mv /usr/local/share/glib-2.0/schemas/bg.gibbon.gschema.xml /usr/share/glib-2.0/schemas/ then you have to "compile" these schemas. $ sudo glib-compile-schemas --targetdir=/usr/share/glib-2.0/schemas/ /usr/share/glib-2.0/schemas/ YMMV. After that gibbon starts up with no problem. Good luck and thanks to Guido for his effort with this client. -Øystein On Mon, Jun 29, 2015 at 5:58 AM, Joseph Heled <jhe...@gmail.com> wrote: > I remember trying to use it unsuccessfully in the past. > > I got it to compile and it core dumped immediately > > ~/software/gibbon > src/gibbon --data-dir data > > (gibbon:32457): GLib-GIO-ERROR **: Settings schema 'bg.gibbon.data.recent' > is not installed > > Trace/breakpoint trap > > > On 29 June 2015 at 15:42, Michael Petch <mpe...@gnubg.org> wrote: > >> >> >> On 2015-06-28 9:30 PM, Joseph Heled wrote: >> > Well, I would love it if the display engine could be bundled with a FIBS >> > client sans the brainz. >> > >> > I stopped playing on FIBS for some years now due to lack of a Linux >> client. >> > >> >> One Linux client that is a work in progress is >> http://savannah.nongnu.org/projects/gibbon/ >> >> It is a GTK+ front end for FIBS.
