Re: [Banshee-List] Installation Error



Changing the apt-get build-dep command to reference Banshee instead of Banshee-1 fixed everything. I am now able to install both Banshee and the Lyrics Plugin. In researching this I found that Banshee-1 was not used in either Ubuntu Intrepid or Jaunty. Perhaps the (Banshee) website should be edited to include both file names?

I ran the two commands before I ever attempted to install. Also, I have the

Another piece to the puzzle:  I have the build of the lyrics plug-in (0.7)
available in Synaptic installed, but when I try to install the latest one I
get the following error when I run sudo ./configure

Does anyone have an idea as to what is going on?
    

Well, you're clearly missing a ton of dependencies.  Is the package
still called "banshee-1" on your distro?  If not, you'll need to
change the apt-get build-dep command appropriately.

If for some reason build-dep is still failing to get you the packages
you need, then just look at the configure errors and start installing
the corresponding packages.  A search for "gmcs" should find you the
Ubuntu package "mono-gmcs".  For your original error (missing gtk+
2.0) you'll need "libgtk2.0-dev", etc.

Best,
Sandy
