Re: Building git master version of gtkmm

[Kjell Ahlstedt <kjell ahlstedt bredband net>]

Hi,
I assume that you get the error when you build GTK+. Try to configure
GTK+ with --enable-introspection=no. I'm not sure what introspection is
good for, but I found this tip (I've forgotten where) when I had a
similar problem the first time I tried to build gtkmm from git with
jhbuild. .gir files are used by gobject-introspection. And don't forget
--prefix, or else 'make install' will try to install in /usr. Thus

  ./configure --enable-introspection=no --prefix=/opt/gnome # or
wherever you want it installed.

(If this email does not look like a reply in all respects, it's because
I did not subscribe to gtkmm-list when the original email was sent. I've
copied info from http://mail.gnome.org/archives/gtkmm-list/)
