Hello,
I'm working my way through BLFS 6.1 trying to get Xorg running and
have gotten as far as trying to compile libgnomecanvas which required
glade which required gtk+2.6.7. I ran into an error doing the configure
from that package and got an error which I can't duplicate now because I
have tried a bunch of things which haven't worked totally. When I
started getting the error I searched the BLFS archive and found a thread
from last month about building pango which had the same errors I was
getting. The last post in the thread was from Jammie Risk who said that
he was able to move up to gtk+-2.6.10 and everything worked well. I
tried the same thing and although it did get rid of some of the errors I
was getting I still have this lingering error about Xft which I quote:
"configure: error: Xft version 2 is required for x11 target"
I have the libXft.so.2.1.2 out there. The pkgconfig directory has the
xft.pc file but I still get the error. I looked at the configure script
and found it is running "pkg-config --exists xft" so I ran that from the
command prompt and it returned 1. I don't know much about pkg-config.
Can someone point me in the right direction? Thanks in advance for any
help you can give me.
Arnie
