Re: [Visualpython-users] Upgrading to Beta. Trouble compiling glibmm-2.14.0 No file gregex.h

[Bruce S. <Bru...@nc...>]

I would think you'd have to address your question to the glibmm experts, 
not to VPython users....?

As to configure issues, what configure typically does on Linux is check 
for basic resources being available, and in what form. For example, is a 
C++ compiler available, are there libraries available on which glibmm 
depends, etc. A script for configuring the building of glibmm does not 
check that all the glibmm files are present, because a tarball for 
glibmm is supposed to contain all the glibmm files.
