Re: help - gtk+2.2.1 and RH8

[ZHOU DX <zhou_dx yahoo com>]

Hi, 
I tried to upgrade my RH8 with gtk2.2 before for
several times, but with no luck. I got heaps of gnome
apps crashing after installing Glib2. I suggest you
try RH9 so that you can save a lot hassles and time.

Btw, you do not have to cp files from local/lib to
lib. You can either "./configure --prefix=/usr/lib",
or export the enviroment varible
PKG_CONFIG_PATH="/usr/lib/pkgconfig:/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig"
somewhere, say /etc/profile.

may it help.
