Title: wxGTK support
Post by: big_julius on November 17, 2004, 07:01:21 PM

It would be nice that aMule supports all wxGTK versions.
Installing specific libwxgtk package may cause dependancy troubles.
Thx.

it supports wxGtk 2.4.2, 2.5.2, 2.5.3 and current CVS.
What's that wxGtk version you're using???
Greetings!

I'm on Mandrake 10.1

[julius@Tux ~]$ rpm -qa | grep wx
libwxgtk2.5_1-2.5.1-5.1.101mdk
libwxgtk2.5-2.5.0-0.cvs20030817.1.3.100mdk
wxGTK2.5-2.5.1-5.1.101mdk


But aMule don't even compile :
./configure says :
                                       wxWidgets          Not detected
                                       GTK                Not detected
and compilation failes.

That's why I'm askng.
If my wxGTK version is supported, why should I have to install yours?

Thanks. :)

hey

are you sure all your 3rpms belong to ONE wxGTK version???
they look like atleast 2different versions.....
and installing 2versions of wxGTK at teh same time is not supported of course. at least not both in /usr/

compile your wxGTK version yourself...and use a different prefix /usr/local/wxGTK2.5.3/ for example and run amule with
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/wxGTK2.5.3/lib/ /path/to/amule &

for compiling there is a configure option in amule  --with-wx-config=/usr/local/wxGTK2.5.3/bin/wx-config


hope that solves some of your problems
but using this way you can manage to compile and use amule against ANY wxGTK version and trust me we tested them ALL with and without gtk2 and unicode

This is most probably wrong. Uninstall libwxgtk2.5-2.5.0-0.cvs20030817.1.3.100mdk.

Maybe you should talk to efe (ThePolish). I believe he is the Mandrake maintainer, and there exists a Mandrake rpm if you want to use rpms.

If you want to compile, you should probably compile wx yourself because the wx distributions rpm in general are screwed (I speak for Fedora Core 1 and 2).

Founded the problem by myself and Jacobo221 was right.
I installed libwxgtk2.5_1-devel package and the compilation was ok.
Thanks everybody.

See ya. :)
Keep on the good work.
