I'm trying to build gtkhtml 3.0.9 on SuSE 9.0 Pro, but this applies to a whole bunch of things that use glib2 (Evolution, AbiWord2 for example...) I get the following error: In file included from /opt/gnome/include/glib-2.0/glib/galloca.h:30, from /opt/gnome/include/glib-2.0/glib.h:30, from /opt/gnome/include/gtk-2.0/gdk/gdktypes.h:32, from /opt/gnome/include/gtk-2.0/gdk/gdkcolor.h:4, from /opt/gnome/include/gtk-2.0/gdk/gdk.h:30, from /opt/gnome/include/gtk-2.0/gtk/gtk.h:31, from /opt/gnome/include/libgnomeui-2.0/gnome.h:4, from gtkhtml-embedded.c:25: /opt/gnome/include/glib-2.0/glib/gtypes.h:41: error: syntax error before "typedef" I actually get a whole bunch of parse and syntax errors, far too many to paste into an email, and the make then fails. The exact same code, with the same version of glib2 on 8.2 (I've checked gtypes.h on both systems - they are the same) builds fine. Does anyone have any thought on what could be up here?

Thanks to a tip from Michael Stevens, I've tracked this problem down to glib/gtk being installed in the same prefix as gnome in 9.0 (/opt/gnome) Because without specifying an includedir option to configure causes it to use $prefix/include it was using /opt/gnome/include which contains glibconfig.h from glib-1.2.x (not glib2-2.2.x) The includedir is one of the first directories used, before anything learnt from pkg-config, meaning that the wrong glibconfig.h was picked up. -- James Ogley, Unix Systems Administrator, Pinnacle Insurance Plc Work: james.ogley@pinnacle.co.uk www.pinnacle.co.uk +44 (0) 20 8731 3619 Personal: james@rubberturnip.org.uk www.rubberturnip.org.uk Updated GNOME RPMs for SuSE Linux: www.usr-local-bin.org *********************************************************************** CONFIDENTIALITY.

I have had no problems getting things to build on 9. What you may want to make sure of is that you have the devel packages installed because if you just did a base install it doesnt install it and if you installed developer packages they only install the devel packages to build QT apps and KDE devel packages.

The exact same code, with the same version of glib2 on 8.2 (I've checked gtypes.h on both systems - they are the same) builds fine.
Does anyone have any thought on what could be up here?
Yeah, GTK, IMO sucks, develop and build on the QT toolkit.
