Re: Garnome and Solaris 2.6 - X problems



Patrick, Any idea why the glib install didn't create
glib-config in my install area? gtk didn't create
gtk-config either. So, what's happening now is that
these(older versions) are getting picked up from
/usr/local/bin instead of my install area
(~/garnome/bin).

This is when I am installing gdk-pixbuf-0.22. Its
using  older gnome-1 and gtk config scripts.

Any idea why these config programs are not getting
created when I install glib/gtk?
