SuSE 8.1 - Gnome2 - libORBitCosNaming.la
Hi, I am still trying to compile gnomesword on SuSE 8.1 - quite a mission. :-) I assume it is due to Gnome2. Now I got stuck on /opt/gnome/lib/libORBitCosNaming.la that is not found. The orbit-devel-0.5.17-63 package only have /usr/lib/libORBitCosNaming.a But, the orbit2-devel-2.4.1-44 has /usr/lib/libORBitCosNaming-2.la Anyone know where I can get libORBitCosNaming.la for SuSE 8.1? Or how to get gnomesword to compile on SuSE 8.1?

Try the ORBit packages from www.usr-local-bin.org -- James Ogley, Webmaster, Rubber Turnip james@rubberturnip.org.uk http://www.rubberturnip.org.uk Jabber: riggwelter@myjabber.net Using Free Software since 1994, running GNU/Linux (SuSE 8.1). GNOME updates for SuSE: http://www.usr-local-bin.org

I downloaded the orbit and orbit2 rpm's fromusr-local-bin, but they also do not include libORBitCosNaming.la. I have taken a chance and fooled the compiler by linking libORBitCosNaming.la. to libORBitCosNaming-2.la. Seems to work, but now it wants to have libIIOP.la and orbit2 does not have an .la library, so now I'm stuck again. Looks like gnomesword is just not ready for SuSE 8.1 yet. I suppose it will also not work with RH 8.0 and Mandrake 9.0 - any Gnome2 system. :-( -- Andre Truter Software Engineer Registered Linux user #185282 ICQ #40935899 AIM: trusoftzaf http://www.trusoft.za.net <-------------------------------------------------> < The box said: Requires Windows 95 or better... > < So I installed Linux > <------------------------------------------------->

Thanks for pointing this out, I may have forgotten to include it in the spec file, will investigate on Monday...

This will only *appear* to work at a guess, ORBit2 it designed for GNOME2, ORBit for GNOME1, they have provide functions with the same names for linking against, but it doesn't mean they're interchangeable.

That's a bit of a brash statement, whether a system has GNOME2 installed or not is irrelevant, the question is: does it have the necessary GNOME1 libraries installed? The answer here *should* be yes, but apparently in your case is not. I'll investigate this on Monday too, see if I can come up with an answer for you. -- James Ogley, Webmaster, Rubber Turnip james@rubberturnip.org.uk http://www.rubberturnip.org.uk Jabber: riggwelter@myjabber.net Using Free Software since 1994, running GNU/Linux (SuSE 8.1).
