Add to Evniron Variable?

How would you add the directory containing 'atk.pc' to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable??

Thanx in advance for the help!!

Linux distro/version?

How did you install atk? RPM? tar.gz?

atk.pc should automatically be installed in the correct place if pkgconfig to find.

I installed it with the Distro that I got, Libranet. I was trying to install a program (gaim new version) and it kept telling me that I did not have glib or gtk+, both of which I have.

I guess I asked the wrong question. Noticed in ATK by mugs that he was having a similar problem, I just asked about the wrong error message. Oh well.

Do you have glib-devel and gtk+-devel installed? Libranet may call them something else.

So you also have a problem with ATK? Or you were reading the error messages wrong?

The answer is yes and maybe. I was trying to install the new version of gaim, since there were a lot of changes. The ./configure could not find glib, gtk+, so dowloaded the files and tried to install. Glib went ok. Re-ran gaim's ./configure could not find gtk+, downloaded and its' ./configure could not find pkgconfig, downloaded pkgconfig and its' ./configure could not find atk.

Retaraced my steps, here is what I did:

1) Tried to install gaim new version
2) ./configure could not find gtk+
3) Downloaded and ran ./configure for gtk+-2.0.5
4) ./configure could not find atk.pc or glib 2.0 libraries.

Sorry for the xtra post.

[JimH]

You are trying to install the wrong versions of glib and gtk+. GAIM uses version 1 of glib and GTK+. You are trying to install version 2 of each.

Even if you got them installed GAIM would still not compile.

Seems as if I am missing the X11 development package, especially the file Intrinsic.h. Any suggestions?

[JimH]

I remember LiNuts having a problem with finding the X development package using Libranet. He might know what package provides them.

On my Limbo beta box.

$ locate Intrinsic.h
/usr/X11R6/include/X11/Intrinsic.h

$ rpm -qf /usr/X11R6/include/X11/Intrinsic.h
XFree86-devel-4.2.0-52
