Welcome back. :) Can you not simply pass the LIB statement to configure/autogen or adjust PKG_CONFIG_PATH?

I use these commands to set up the prefix before installing and updating
babl/GEGL/GIMP:
prefix=/home/elle/code/gimpdefault/run
exec_prefix=${prefix}
libdir=${exec_prefix}/lib
includedir=${prefix}/include
datarootdir=${prefix}/share
The babl/GEGL/GIMP run/lib/pkgconfig/ pc files have text like this
(sometimes fewer or more lines):
prefix=/home/elle/code/gimpdefault/run
exec_prefix=${prefix}
libdir=${exec_prefix}/lib
includedir=${prefix}/include
datarootdir=${prefix}/share
Is there another step involved in passing the LIB statement to
configure/autogen or adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH?

Re: [Gimp-developer] GIMP looking for babl and GEGL outside the prefix
Hi Elle,
Not a GIMP dev, so just some general advice here.
It looks like the problem is from compiling gimphistogram.c. Scroll back
through the history to find the 'gcc' line where this is compiled and look
at the full arguments. Make sure that there's a "-L/home/elle/..." argument
that appears before any other "-L/usr/lib" type arguments.
Then, I'd look at the Makefile to see if it makes sense. Where are the -L
arguments coming from? Are you running some pkgconfig command from /usr/bin
instead of your custom path? Etc.
Regards,
Chris

Re: [Gimp-developer] GIMP looking for babl and GEGL outside the prefix
Let's say that you are building it somewhere like /opt
Let's also say that your babl/gegl are in /opt/babl and /opt/gegl respectively.
Then, I would do the following:
export
PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/opt/babl/lib/pkgconfig;/opt/gegl/lib/pkgconfig;$PKG_CONFIG_PATH
Babl has no dependencies and so you can build it first.
Then to build gegl, I would say
./configure --prefix=/opt/gegl LIBS=-L/opt/babl/lib CPPFLAGS=-I/opt/babl/include
For gimp then I would say
./configure --prefix=/opt/gimp LIBS="-L/opt/babl/lib -L/opt/gegl/lib"
CPPFLAGS="-I/opt/babl/include -I/opt/gegl/include"
etc.
Note that both gegl and gimp pick up the libraries from PKG_CONFIG_PATH

I use these steps for building and installing GIMP into my home directory: https://mukund.org/tmp/gimp-build-script.txt It has (historically) worked for others too. It may need some fiddling of version numbers for the deps. After the exports, You can start from the babl step if you have a very new distro such as Fedora 21 which has the gtk+-2.0 version that GIMP needs.

Re: [Gimp-developer] GIMP looking for babl and GEGL outside the prefix
Hi Partha, Chris, and Mukund, and thanks! for trying to help sort this out. I've rebuilt babl/GEGL/GIMP in a prefix many times without any problems. The problem started when I installed babl/GEGL/GIMP-2.8 from Gentoo portage. For some reason GIMP from git is looking for babl in /usr before checking the prefix. Mukund, the build script failed with gegl saying it couldn't find babl. Chris, I don't know how to make sense of what's in the makefile. I did look at it. Partha, I'm not sure how to interpret these lines: export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/opt/babl/lib/pkgconfig;/opt/gegl/lib/pkgconfig;$PKG_CONFIG_PATH Babl has no dependencies and so you can build it first. Then to build gegl, I would say ./configure --prefix=/opt/gegl LIBS=-L/opt/babl/lib CPPFLAGS=-I/opt/babl/include because there is no "blah/babl/lib" but rather "blah/lib/babl". So I tried the following: ./autogen.sh --prefix=/home/elle/code/gimpdefault/run LIBS=-L/home/elle/code/gimpdefault/run/lib/babl-0.1 CPPFLAGS=-I/home/elle/code/gimpdefault/run/include/babl-0.1 and similarly for GIMP, which ended in the same GIMP "make" error message about an undefined reference to `babl_format_get_model'. I'm sure Partha's advice is on the right track. The babl build ends with the following: Libraries have been installed in: /home/elle/code/gimpdefault/run/lib/babl-0.1 If you ever happen to want to link against installed libraries in a given directory, LIBDIR, you must either use libtool, and specify the full pathname of the library, or use the '-LLIBDIR' flag during linking and do at least one of the following: - add LIBDIR to the 'LD_LIBRARY_PATH' environment variable during execution - add LIBDIR to the 'LD_RUN_PATH' environment variable during linking - use the '-Wl,-rpath -Wl,LIBDIR' linker flag - have your system administrator add LIBDIR to '/etc/ld.so.conf' Unfortunately I don't know the right syntax and place to implement above. Anyway, thanks! everyone for trying to help. At this point I'll use the "workaround" of uninstalling babl/GEGL from portage before updating babl/GEGL/GIMP from git, unless someone knows how to implement the above babl output.

Hi Elle,
these variables won't help at all. A more-or-less complete development
prefix environment looks like this (working example from my disk, with
all the same packages in prefix also installed by the OS in /usr):
PREFIX=/home/elle/code/gimpdefault/run
export PATH=$PREFIX/bin:$PATH
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$PREFIX/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
export XDG_DATA_DIRS=$PREFIX/share:$XDG_DATA_DIRS
export ACLOCAL_FLAGS="-I $PREFIX/share/aclocal"
export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=$PREFIX/lib/pkgconfig:$PKG_CONFIG_PATH
If you also build glib in that prefix, it needs to find
OS-installed modules. On debian unstable 64 bit this looks
like:
export GIO_EXTRA_MODULES=/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/gio/modules
but might be different depending on the distribution.
Regards,
--Mitch

Following your setup worked perfectly. glib did complain that $PREFIX/share/aclocal didn't exist, so I created the empty directory and then everything went smoothly, with GIMP and glib both writing ".m4" files to the aclocal directory. From curiosity, why didn't babl and GEGL also write ".m4" files? In case anyone else is running Gentoo, the path (at least for a pure 64-bit build) is "/usr/lib/gio/modules". For the next person who encounters this problem, maybe a link to Mitch's post could be added to http://wiki.gimp.org/wiki/Hacking:Problems_and_solutions#GIMP_build_fails_for_missing_BABL_function?

From curiosity, > why didn't babl and GEGL also write ".m4" files? The m4 macros are doing fancy stuff... Instead of simply doing pkg-config --foo glib-2.0" or its m4 version PKG_CHECK_MODULES(GLIB, glib-2.0 >= glib_required_version) you would use: AM_PATH_GLIB_2_0(...) which does the above, and additionally does paranoia checks like verifying that the lib and its headers belong together, that a program can actually be compiled against that version, and whatnot. It's "extra paranoia", useful, but not strictly needed. > In case anyone else is running Gentoo, the path (at least for a pure > 64-bit build) is "/usr/lib/gio/modules". > > For the next person who encounters this problem, maybe a link to Mitch's > post could be added to > http://wiki.gimp.org/wiki/Hacking:Problems_and_solutions#GIMP_build_fails_for_missing_BABL_function?
