Aha!  That is helpful.  Thanks, I'll look for that.

Of course it is; the question is *where*? The error message tells me that it found 2.2.1, and that I should remove it, but it doesn't tell me *where* it found it. Additionally boggling is the fact that I've removed every glib-2.0 folder on my system, and it still gives me the error.


put the location of
glib 2.2.3 ahead of it in LD_LIBRARY_PATH.

My LD_LIBRARY_PATH is null. I'll try putting the location of 2.2.3 into there and see if that fixes it.

I'm running Gnome 2.2 on Slackware 9.0, and I'm trying to upgrade to Gnome 2.4. I'm following the order of installation on this page:

So I've intalled Glib 2.2.3.  But now Pango is giving me this error:

It tells me where it's getting the 2.2.3 from, so why doesn't it tell me where it's getting the 2.2.1 from??

I've gone back and removed every directory on my system named glib-2.0 (after trying lots of other stuff with no success), and then re-installed Glib 2.2.3, and it's still giving me the error.

So...
#1.  Where is the 2.2.1 coming from, and
#2. Wouldn't it make sense for the installer(s) be changed so that they tell where they've found it, once they've found it?

Thanks,
Anthony
