Thanks for the tip. gnutrition is a rather outdated

frankly, it should b dropped from sourceforge as there
is only spam in the mailing list and no-one seems to
be maintaining the files or moderating the lists
:((
old ! last update was in 2001


I changed gnomej-config to pkg-config in the configure
gnome-config was used by gnome 1.x series, and pkg-config do not list
these libraries afaik.


script and it configured ok.

This application we need lot more than pkg-config substitution .


BUT "make" stops with a very curious error:
"Makefile", line 280: Need an operator
make: fatal errors encountered -- cannot continue
*** Error code 1

I checked the Web for an explanation and cure without
success - the code:

278. mkdir $(distdir)/=build
279. mkdir $(distdir)/=inst
280. dc_install_base=`cd $(distdir)/=inst &&
pwd`; \
281 cd $(distdir)/=build \

appears in other Makefiles. Also, I do not understand
what 'operator' is missing ...

let me see what i can do, no promises :|


Once again, any help or suggestions would be welcome.

Trying to install gnutrition on FreeBSD 6.2,
./configure returns error message "did not find
libglade installed".
gnome-config --libs libglade returns "Unknown
library
libglade"
gnome-config --libdir returns "/usr/local/lib"
libglade exists in /usr/local/lib


I believe gnome use pkg-config

$ pkg-config --list-all


gnome-config --libs * returns "Unknown..." for
every
listing.
Also, libglade-2.0 exists in /usr/local/include
but
that is a directory and its subdirectory (glade)
contains a number of script files.
This is rather confusing... I do not understand
why
libglade is not found either by ./configure or on
command line (both using gnome-config)
Generally, I am able to find sufficient
information in
help files or on the net to deal with most
installation and runtime problems. Here, I am
stumped.
Thanks in advance for any help ...
