Excerpt from the gimp-2.4 install file:| Quote | 1. You need to have installed a recent version of pkg-config available
from http://www.freedesktop.org/software/pkgconfig/.
2. You need to have installed GTK+ version 2.10.13 or newer. GIMP
needs an even more recent version of GLib (>= 2.12.3). It also
wants Pango (>= 1.12.2). Sources for these can be grabbed from
ftp://ftp.gtk.org/.
3. We require PangoFT2, a Pango backend that uses FreeType2. Make
sure you have FreeType2 and fontconfig installed before you
compile Pango. FreeType2 can be downloaded from
http://www.freetype.org/. Fontconfig from
http://freedesktop.org/fontconfig/. GIMP depends on freetype2
being newer than version 2.1.7 and fontconfig 2.2.0 or newer.
Older versions are known to have bugs that seriously affect
stability of GIMP.
4. We use libart2. Grab the module libart_lgpl out of GNOME SVN or
fetch the tarball from
ftp://ftp.gnome.org/pub/gnome/sources/libart_lgpl/
5. We use dbus-glib if available. Grab it from
http://dbus.freedesktop.org/releases/dbus-glib/
6. You may want to install other third party libraries or programs
that are needed for some of the available plugins. We recommend
to check that the following libraries are installed: libpng,
libjpeg, libpoppler, libtiff, gtkhtml-2, libmng, librsvg, libwmf.
7. The Python extension requires Python development headers to be
present. You will also need PyGTK and the respective development
headers. |
- on the positive front, the compile extension I'm working on contains the latest version of pkgconfig...
