I am new to Linux, so I may be overlooking something. I try to run the ./configure command and I get this:
checking for GLIB - version >= 2.5.6... no
*** Could not run GLIB test program, checking why...
*** The test program failed to compile or link. See the file config.log for the
*** exact error that occured. This usually means GLIB is incorrectly installed.
configure: error:
*** GLIB 2.5.6 or better is required. The latest version of
*** GLIB is always available from ftp://ftp.gtk.org/
I have read a similar post to this where the response was that the dev files were not installed. Here is a list of what I currently have installed related to GLIB...
As a newbie, I obviously have no clue what those mean, but I would think that the libglib2.0-dev package would satisfy the GLIB2.5.6 requirement. If someone could please look at this and let me know what I am missing and, if possible, how to install/upgrade it?
I am trying to migrate from Win98 to Ubuntu and I am trying to install Screem as a replacement for two programs that I have been using to design my website - HTML-kit and Notepad++.
