Re: [Tracker] Proper development libraries to get PDF support [SOLVED]

Re: [Tracker] Proper development libraries to get PDF support [SOLVED]
Hey guys, I found the problem. There was no library missing. It was just the configure options were wrong. According to README file, we should use ./configure --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc or else things would go wrong. However, simply running ./configure works! It picks up all the libraries. What is the purpose then of the above line in the README file. Am I missing something? By the way, this is on a Debian Etch 4.0r1 machine.

Passing --prefix and --sysconfdir to ./configure does not influence how the poppler devel libs are detected (using pkg-config). I guess you your problem is elsewhere. Why prefix /usr and sysconfdir /etc: Otherwise your tracker installation won't work properly (dbus integration, autostart files etc.).

I removed tracker and did a make distclean and ran the ./configure command with --prefix=/usr and --sysconfdir=/etc. It works this time. Maybe I had to do a make distclean before reconfiguring again. Thank you. Why prefix /usr and sysconfdir /etc: Otherwise your tracker installation won't work properly (dbus integration, autostart files etc.). Also, i was using the tracker install that was only configured with ./configure and it seems to be working fine (i was able to perform searches). Related to this, how do I check if my tracker install is configured properly? Thanks ___ tracker-list mailing list tracker-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/tracker-list
