Good while the INSTALL for glib-2.0.0 says this: Simple install procedure ======================== % gzip -cd glib-2.0.0.tar.gz | tar xvf - # unpack the sources % cd glib-2.0.0 # change to the toplevel directory % ./configure # run the `configure' script % make # build GLIB [ Become root if necessary ] % rm -rf /install-prefix/include/glib.h /install-prefix/include/gmodule.h % make install # install GLIB Of _course_ I did remove a _glib.h_ file but this was done quite a while back... don't know if this was a wrong file. anyway thanks for any pointers :-) -- LinuxUser aka Josef Oswald [EMAIL PROTECTED] registered-linux-user # 134.818 at http://counter.li.org The box said Windows, NT or better, so I installed Linux :-) _______________________________________________ gtk-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-list
