Re: install-Anyone any suggestions??????????

[Michael Devine <mdevine cs stanford edu>]

I just ran into this.

I have an updated Ximian Desktop distro on top of RH9.  I needed to to
get a new libgsf (Ximian's most recent is 1.8.1).  I did it by checking
out the libgsf tree from cvs.gnome.org.  The make install for libgsf
installs it to /usr/local/lib/, so I then had to: 

export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig/

and re-ran configure.

I you can find a rpm of a libgsf > 1.8.1, you may be able to install it
and not change PKG_CONFIG_PATH.  It depends on where the rpm installs
it.

Good luck,
Mike Devine
