Install libgsf by running the following commands:
./configure --prefix=/usr \ --sysconfdir=/etc/gnome/2.30.2 && make
Running make check
will build a battery of test programs which are built using the
just-created libgsf-1 library. All
the programs should build successfully with no errors displayed.
Now, as the root user:
make install
--sysconfdir=/etc/gnome/2.30.2:
Use this parameter to ensure that if GConf has been installed, this package's
schema files will be installed in the correct location instead of
/usr/etc/.
--without-python: This parameter is
required if Python is not
installed.
--disable-static: This switch prevents
the static libraries in this package being built and installed.
--enable-gtk-doc: Use this parameter if
GTK-Doc is installed and you wish
to rebuild and install the API documentation.
