Re: [Cronosii-users] gtk+ configure error

[Pablo N. <cro...@us...>]

Hi

You have a pretty common problem, you have two glib installed, probably 1.2.7 at /usr
and 1.2.8 at /usr/local

You should just do
rpm -e --nodeps glib
rpm -e --nodeps glib-devel (don't worry if this returns an error)

How did you installed the 1.2.8 version? RPM?
Then you should do:
rpm -q glib
if this gives you a non error message (it doesn't tell you that there's no such a package)
you should do again
rpm -e --nodeps glib
rpm -e --nodeps glib-devel

and now reinstall glib

if you build from source you should do make uninstall
and then make install

Before procceding to reinstall (tarball or rpm) the 1.2.8 you should check that glib-config
is an unknown command, if it isn't then you still have another copie around your system...

Well, hope this helped you, Pablo.
