Hi Adam and Ignacio,
installing the devel packages helped (a little bit). And I adjusted the
LD_LIBRARY_PATH variable as well. Now the configure script runs without
errors. But make cancels with error:
"VALAC libgitg_libgitg_1_0_la_vala.stamp
error: Package `ggit-1.0' not found in specified Vala API directories or
GObject-Introspection GIR directories."
Could not find out the cause of this. I could not even find a ggit-1.0
package. Do I have to adjust another environment variable for Vala?
I also tried building gitg via jhbuild. After some hours I canceled,
because the virtual hard drive of my build environment was full. Maybe
16GB was a little bit too less.
I have a fresh installation of Debian 8.1 btw.
Any suggestions?
Thanks for your help.
David
