Getting Perl Gtk2 to work on suse 8.2

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Having problems with this. Would like to do this, and setup the language bindings for perl in Glade2. (For Glade2, I'm thinking maybe it's easier to reinstall the whole thing?) For Perl Gtk2, it requires pkg-config... which doesn't come with suse 8.2. So I downloaded and installed from Ximian's suse 8.2 rpm. But this doesn't create the .pc files. I'm hoping not to have to do this manually. Can anyone help me out? -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.2-rc1-SuSE (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQE/aPc3aHIibdOngkARAtuWAJ4oTYs218XyjVnj1JYeIsH1rkKH3gCfVHSO MSRu1miN1TGgpSH0efAEARE= =sO40 -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----

# rpm -qf /usr/bin/pkg-config pkgconfig-0.15.0-20 # cat /etc/SuSE-release SuSE Linux 8.2 (i586) VERSION = 8.2 So it does provide it :) the .pc files you need are part of the respective -devel packages which you need anyway to compile an app/lib that needs that library. Do you by chance have the personal version? That one lacks *all* development packages. Your best chance to get them would be the FTP version of 8.2. cheers Philipp -- Philipp Thomas work: pthomas AT suse DOT de private: philipp DOT thomas AT t-link DOT de
