Hi, I posted in the GFTP mailing list, but I see little hope of getting an answer, so I got nothing to loose if I ask here. The web has only incomplete bits and pieces on the subject. This is all about building from source. I'm trying to install gtk+-2.13.3 in order to install GFTP (a graphical SSH tool). I'm running Fedora Core 8 (2.6.24.4-64.fc8) Some prerequisites are required, so I installed glib-2.17.2 from source, but my system has this default glib stuff installed: $ rpm -qa | grep glib glibmm24-2.14.2-1.fc8 glib2-2.14.6-1.fc8 glibc-devel-2.7-2 glibc-2.7-2 glibc-common-2.7-2 glib-1.2.10-28.fc8 dbus-glib-devel-0.73-8.fc8 glib-java-0.2.6-10.fc8 taglib-1.5-1.fc8 dbus-glib-0.73-8.fc8 glibc-headers-2.7-2 glib2-devel-2.14.6-1.fc8 I've tried to point the 'configure' to the glib I installed from source. $ export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=$PKG_CONFIG_PATH:/usr/local/glib/glib-2.17.2/lib:/usr/lib/pkgconfig/:/usr/local/lib:/usr/lib ...because this error stops everything, how do I work around it?. <configure message> checking for BASE_DEPENDENCIES... configure: error: Package requirements (glib-2.0 >= 2.17.1 atk >= 1.13.0 pango >= 1.20 cairo >= 1.6) were not met: Requested 'glib-2.0 >= 2.17.1' but version of GLib is 2.14.6 No package 'atk' found Requested 'pango >= 1.20' but version of Pango is 1.18.4 Requested 'cairo >= 1.6' but version of cairo is 1.4.14 Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you installed software in a non-standard prefix. Alternatively, you may set the environment variables BASE_DEPENDENCIES_CFLAGS and BASE_DEPENDENCIES_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config. See the pkg-config man page for more details. </configure message> the GTK configure keeps looking at the rpm installed version of glib (shown above). I tried editing the file 'configure' but that did not help. Any advice will be appreciated.
