Re: [gtk-list] Re: Compiling GTK

[Tony Peterson <capeters physics Arizona EDU>]

I've tried updating what I could find currently I have the following
rpms installed:


XFree86-libs-3.3.1-14
glibc-2.0.5c-10
glibc-devel-2.0.5c-10
libc-5.4.44-1rh42

I was able to update libc from the 5.3 version that I had but I have not
found any other more recent libraries. I was wondering if there are
conflicts between the libraries. I tried to install the libc-devel
rpm and it wouldn't let me because of conflicts. Is it possible that
I may not correctly specify the library paths?
