Hi,

Im trying to install gnome, but I have a little problem with the compiling of gtk+ (2.4.7) . I have installed Xorg-x11-6.7.0-r2 and pango...

I get this error message during the configure
Code:
configure error: Pango 1.2.0 and Xft backends is requierd for X11 targets


I think it is the Xft backends thats causing the problems. As mentiond earlier, I have installed xorg. I tougth Xft came with xorg, dosent it?

I've got this problem too. I'm using the CVS version of Xorg. I'm pretty sure it has Xft.

Okay now I'm getting Pango and Xft problems for other packages like LogJam too. What the hell is going on here?

Got it. I'm not sure if this will apply to you but it fixed it for me. Xorg CVS installed pkgconfig files to /usr/X11R6/lib/pkgconfig and not to /usr/lib/pkgconfig where all the others seem to be. I moved them and made a symlink to fix this. However I think you can also use a PKG_CONFIG environment variable and perhaps you can set more than one folder? I probably should have done that but by the time I thought of it, I'd already moved the files and I can't remember which ones I moved. Next time I update Xorg CVS, I'll try doing it that way instead.
