extra text for gtk-config not found

2000-02-29 Thread Blue Lang


heya,

i know this is kind of a pedantic bitch, but i run into it every time i
install a new system w/red hat and then install gimp from source.

after building and installing a new gtk, unless you specify usr/lib as
your install path, you will have to add /usr/local/bin to
/etc/ld.so.config and run ldconfig or configure will fail.

i've done it half dozen or more times, and it still give me pause - and i
remember what a PITA it was before i figured out what was going on.

will someone add possibly a check or some extra text to that end in
./configure, so that the people upgrading to 2.0 on existing RH systems
won't be so in the dark?

thanks,

 The first one is definitely a need but "a plugin interface that is
 versionable"? We do have versioned libraries ensuring that plugins
 always use the right libgimp version and a wireprotocol which checks
 whether a plugin is using the same protocol version as the GIMP.

I tried several plugins and they all work.
