Re: [Gnome-print] Building gnome_print on Solaris

[Lauris Kaplinski <lauris ximian com>]

Hello!

popt id command-line argument parsing library from Red Hat. As it is installed by
default for most linuxes, I have never compiled it myself, but my 'man popt'
gives

ftp://ftp.redhat.com/pub/redhat/code/popt

as its default location.
AFAIK popt is also necessary dependency for libgnome - as gnome initialization
uses popt argument tables. If you have working installation of gnome libraries,
there should be popt already present - but maybe you are missing header files
or buildin system cannot find them.

Hope that helps,
Lauris Kaplinski
