Re: Install gtkmm from source

["Paulo Flabiano Smorigo" <pfsmorigo gmail com>]

Hello,

I manage to use jhbuild to install the version 2.12 of gtkmm.
Now I need the same version for cross-compilation to windows (using with ming-w32).
Is there a command option in jhbuild to do that?

Thanks...

Hi everybody,

How can I compile my gtkmm libraries from source. Is there a "how to" explaning the procedure?
I started downloading the gtkmm-2.12.7.tar.bz2. Then asks for glibmm, that asks for glib... After they ask for cairomm, that asks for cairo, that asks for pixman....

I don't want to overwrite the system version so I use the prefix= tag with ./configure

Thanks in advance...

Note, this is really not recommended unless you know what you're doing or you want to help hack on gtkmm itself, but the easiest way to do this is described here: http://gtkmm.org/docs/gtkmm-2.4/docs/tutorial/html/chapter-working-with-svn.html
