help compiling gnome-vfs-2.18.1

[John Goulah]

I'm trying to get gnome-vfs installed, I have the apt installed glib
in /usr/local and my compiled glib-2.14.5 in /usr/local/lib -- I want
it to use the latter, how do I force that? I'm getting:

gcc -g -O2 -o .libs/gnome-vfs-daemon dbus-utils.o vfs-daemon.o
daemon-connection.o -pthread -L/cuttingedge/lib

/home/jgoulah/gnome-vfs-2.18.1/libgnomevfs/.libs/libgnomevfs-2.so:

collect2: ld returned 1 exit status


I tried to force in the Makefile to the /usr/local/lib version (I'm
sure there is a better way) by replacing -lglib-2.0 with
-l/usr/local/lib/libglib-2.0.so.0. That didn't do the trick, but I'm
pretty confident thats what I need since that function does exist in
the symbol table for the one in /usr/local but not the one in /usr:

$ readelf -s /usr/lib/libglib-2.0.so | grep g_once_init_leave
$ <nothing>

$ readelf -s /usr/local/lib/libglib-2.0.so.0 | grep g_once_init_leave
345: 00051140 238 FUNC GLOBAL DEFAULT 10 g_once_init_leave
2895: 00051140 238 FUNC LOCAL HIDDEN 10 IA__g_once_init_leave
3456: 00051140 238 FUNC GLOBAL DEFAULT 10 g_once_init_leave


Can someone get me back on track?


Thanks!
John

I'm starting to wonder if this list is even active? Nobody knows how
to override the default glib location?

Try:

export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig:$PKG_CONFIG_PATH
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH

And then configure, clean and make gnome-vfs anew. This pkg-config
mechanism is not unique to gnome-vfs, btw - you'll find most
GNOME-related packages use it.

Hi, thanks for the advice.. I'm still getting an error, probably b/c
its trying to link both glib in /usr and /usr/local :

I guess what I was looking for was an env var similar to OPENSSL_LIBS,
LIBXML_LIBS, etc to explicitly force it but one for glib seems to not
exist. Any other ideas on how I can get this to build?


Thanks!

Well, you're linking with avahi and avahi-glib from /usr, which pulls in
the glib in /usr in addition to the one you specified. Also libORBit. I
think it should still work if you've correctly set LD_LIBRARY_PATH to
point to the glib you have installed in /usr/local/lib, but maybe your
best option is to take a look at jhbuild and build the dependencies too:

http://live.gnome.org/Jhbuild

It's not that hard to set up, and it's what most GNOME developers use
themselves.
