Okay I did some searching and installed all the gtk libs and gnome-config then I tried compiling a very basic program: //gnomeshow.c #include<gnome.h> int main(int argc, char argv[]) { gprint("gchar: %d\n",sizeof(gchar)); exit(0); } //make CC=gcc LDLIBS=`gnome-config --libs gnomeui` CFLAGS=-Wall -g `gnome-config --cflags gnomeui` gshow:gshow.o //end anyway this used to work a long time ago but now all I get is gnome.h unknown.....Anyone know what I am doing wrong or whats different these days in SuSE (8.2 Pro---all Gnome libs and gnome-config loaded in fact /opt/gnome/include/gnome-1.0/gnome.h is where the header exist) Or is this something I am not supposed to use anymore now that we are much laterin the GTK tree??
