I'm testing this on Slackware-current (soon-to-be-10.2). Of course, I'm also in the situation of needing wxGTK installed. So I let the installer do it as root. To make matters worse, I'm using the installer remotely, with X11 tunelling through SSH over DSL. It took 1 hour and 15 minutes just to build wxGTK !! The target machine is a PIII running at 750 MHz. The good news is that the installer did not die: it's now doing libgeda-20050820. It started it over 2 hours ago... But the thing I don't understand is where the wxGTK library went. I can see lots of object files in "/usr/local/src/wxGTK-2.6.1" and libraries in "/usr/local/src/wxGTK-2.6.1/lib". But is that where they are supposed to be ? The directory "/usr/local/lib" remained empty. > have tested it on my FC1 and an FC2 machines (it works), but I am very > eager to get installation reports from other users on other machines. > In particular, I am a little leery about gcc-4.x, which is probably > distributed with the newest Linux distributions. Ah, sorry, Slackware will stick with gcc 3.3.6, so I can't help with that aspect of the testing. > Thanks for your valuable help and input! And thanks for this compilation CD. Also thanks to all for the great software ! Cheers, Jean-Francois
