OK let's say that I had glib-2.0 installed in the default location of /usr it's the default mandrake 9.0 rpm install.
Then I go and download the latest src.tar.gz version and ./configure it with the defaults and install the new version in /usr/local
How do I un-install the old version in /usr without breaking all the
dependences and have the apps that where looking in /usr/* for the
libraries now reference /usr/local....
This should be a nonissue, as the dynamic linker (ldd) takes care of this
stuff.
How do I leave the old libs in place and get configure to *only* use the new libs? I'm a bit confused as to what is important in the environment but it may be just that I was trying to do this @ 1 am in the morning.
