David that's some fantastic sleuthing and so helpful of you to offer the fixit remedy.
However I got to the following part: * Command: ./configure --prefix=/usr and get the following which results in an error at the end: checking for a BSD-compatible install... /usr/bin/install -c checking whether build environment is sane... yes checking for a thread-safe mkdir -p... /bin/mkdir -p checking for gawk... no checking for mawk... mawk checking whether make sets $(MAKE)... yes checking whether to enable maintainer-specific portions of Makefiles... yes checking whether make supports nested variables... yes checking for pkg-config... /usr/bin/pkg-config checking pkg-config is at least version 0.9.0... yes checking for gobject-introspection... configure: error: gobject-introspection-1.0 is not installed Any idea what is gobject-introspection-1.0? Should I just apt-get install gobject-introspection-1.0??
