Ok, let us start from the top. I wanted to install Gmudix-2.4.0. It tells me that I need gtk. So I go get gtk-2.4.0 and it tells me I need glib. So I go get glib-2.4.0. I try to install glib-2.4.0 but it tells me that I need gettext. So I get gettext-0.13 and install it. Then I try to install glib-2.4.0 and it works.I go back to install gtk-2.4.0 again and it now tells me that I need atk. So I go downloaded atk-1.0.3 and try to install it. It checks to see if I have glib and I get this:

checking for pkg-config... /usr/local/bin/pkg-config
checking for GLIB - version >= 2.0.0...
*** 'pkg-config --modversion glib-2.0' returned 2.4.0, but GLIB (2.4.7)
*** was found! If pkg-config was correct, then it is best
*** to remove the old version of GLib. You may also be able to fix the error
*** by modifying your LD_LIBRARY_PATH enviroment variable, or by editing
*** /etc/ld.so.conf. Make sure you have run ldconfig if that is
*** required on your system.
*** If pkg-config was wrong, set the environment variable PKG_CONFIG_PATH
*** to point to the correct configuration files
no
configure: error:
*** GLIB 2.0.0 or better is required. The latest version of
*** GLIB is always available from ftp://ftp.gtk.org/.
----end-of-output----

I tried what it suggested and I still can't get it to work. Please help me

The latest version of gMUDix I can find is 1.0 for lLinux ..
The latest version of MUDix is 4.3 ..

If your working with an earlier version , like the 2.4.0 you posted,
perhaps that is why its asking for dated libs, and not liking the curent ones..

This was my source of info..
dw.nl.eu.org/mudix.html

Perhaps you have found a more current source for builds..

let me know..

I bypassed by problem with:

Code Sample

./configure --disable-glibtest

It configured fine and I get atk installed. The next thing I need for gtk is pango. So I go and download pango and try to configure it but it says I need fontconfig. So I download fontconfig-2.2.0 and try to configure it. It says I need freetype. So I download freetype-2.1.9 and try to configure it but it says that a one of the libs that came with it wasn't a valid lib when I try to make it. So I downloaded freetype-2.1.8 and compiles perfectly. I go back to fontconfig-2.2.0 and it says that the expat lib is missing. I'll be back later after I get this lib. Hopefuly I'll be able to write a HOWTO install Gmudix after I get through this.

The expat lib can be downloaded through synaptics but it doesn't work so I go download expat-1.95.8 and it installs nicely. I go back to fontconfig-2.2.0 and it configured great. Then when I try to make:

I am clueless to this one... Any suggestions?
