Re: Compiling from CVS - gtk+ problems

[Jim Smith <j-smith physics tamu edu>]

I figured out one peoblem I was having... (my face is red from it)

I had previously installed the RPM for gnome.  Thought I had removed it all
(nasty going through rpm since it always spits dependencies back at you:).  I
had /usr/lib/glib-config found in the path before /usr/gnome/lib/glib-config. 
Hopefully it will work now.  Need to put /usr/gnome/bin on the path ahead of
everything else.  (The prev. glib-config locations might be in ../bin/)

Anyway, just so we know where to look first next time.
