glib err 1

[Devillion]

I am trying to install 'the gimp' on my libranet distro machine, but i get an error when i get to the 'make install' step. I first run './configure' then 'make'. then when i try to execute 'make install' i get this error-

make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/mike/glib-2.2.0/build'
Making install in po
make[1]: Entering directory `/home/mike/glib-2.2.0/po'
make[1]: *** No rule to make target `azNONE', needed by `all-yes'.  Stop.
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/mike/glib-2.2.0/po'
make: *** [install-recursive] Error 1

What do i do to fix this?

Obviously something wasn't made or configured properly. It would be a good idea to do a:

Code: [Select]

to see what options are offered. Since the "po" directory is used for internationalization (contains translations) see if you can disable that in when doing the configure step.

Either that or just do an apt-get install gimp. Libranet uses the same packageing tools that Debian uses, and since apt resolves dependencies automatically, it would be considerably easier.

Try 'su' before you run the 'make install' command.

neither worked. And i did use 'su' to become root before the build.

Did configure give you any errors?

download binaries. you don't have compiler problems then.

As you would say: Truth.

Yes I know those are Slackpacks, but they're quite standard, and should work with plain tar and gz extractors.

Is this a "re-build"?
If so, use:
#make clean
