Dear sir,
As suggested by you and Andre, I have got latest nautilus from git master
and tried to install. As I am using Ubuntu9.10, latest Nautilus give
following error:
/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////start
command: $./configure
checking for BASE... configure: error: Package requirements (
gtk+-3.0 >= 2.99.0
glib-2.0 >= 2.27.5
) were not met:
No package 'gtk+-3.0' found
Requested 'glib-2.0 >= 2.27.5' but version of GLib is 2.22.3
Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you
installed software in a non-standard prefix.
Alternatively, you may set the environment variables BASE_CFLAGS
and BASE_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config.
See the pkg-config man page for more details.
////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////end
I tried to install gtk+-3.0 using apt-get, but not getting. says "Couldn't
find package gtk+-3.0"
Is it require ubuntu10?
Please guide to make further exploration.
Thanks
Leena Chourey
