Hi All,

I am attempting to install GnomeSword using a tar.gz. Here is my first snag.

I uncompressed the tar.gz then I did a ./configure The entire results are pasted below but here is the end part:

------------------------------
checking for GtkHTML... checking for pkg-config... /usr//bin/pkg-config
checking for gtkhtml-1.1... Package gtkhtml-1.1 was not found in the pkg-config
search path.
Perhaps you should add the directory containing `gtkhtml-1.1.pc'
to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable
No package 'gtkhtml-1.1' found


configure: error: Library requirements (gtkhtml-1.1) not met; consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if your libraries are in a nonstandard prefix so pkg-config can find them.

----------------------------


I did a search for gtkhtml and there are 2 items. A folder was found at usr/lib/gtkhtml and a file was found at usr/lib/menu/gtkhtml

pkg-config was found at /usr/bin/pkg-config. I noticed that there are 2 slashes after "usr" in my results ( /usr//bin/pkg-config noted above), is that suppose to mean something?

It suggests "consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH" but I did a search for PKG_CONFIG_PATH and came up empty.

How can I fix this so I can move to the next step?

Also, I noted in my results (entire results pasted at the bottom) that there were a few "no" lines scattered throughout the results:

checking whether we are cross compiling... no
checking if gcc static flag -static works... no
checking whether -lc should be explicitly linked in... no
checking for strerror in -lcposix... no
checking for XpmFreeXpmImage in -lXpm... no

Should I be concerned about any of these?

Any help would be appreciated
Thanks
Russ

Could someone explain what the above is accomplishing

Short answer. The ./configure command runs the configure script which builds the Makefile with the options that you specify by passing parameters to the configure script. If you want to build with only defaults, you can simply issue the ./configure command.
