Re: [gtk-list] glib/gtk+-1.2.7 installed and themes went down

[RNG <r gasch chello nl>]

Hi, 

I ran into this a few months ago. Here's what I remember: 

- self compiled gtk usually lives in /usr/local/ rather than /usr
- as such, your libpixmap.so is not under /usr/local/
- creating a symbolic link from your system installed libpixmap.so to the
correct path (under /usr/local) should work
- to see which files gtk attempts to open, use strace: 
	strace -o logfile <your program> 

Then look in logfile for the path it searches for libpixmap and create a
symbolic link to the correct location ... this worked for me. Sorry for being a
bit vague, but the last time I ran into this was quite a while ago ...

Greetings
