Update README.md #18

Closed goberghen closed 7 years ago

goberghen commented 7 years ago

Without gdk-pixbuf2 installed there is an error:

Typelib file for namespace 'GdkPixbuf', version '2.0' not found

rootkiwi commented 7 years ago

I searched a little and noticed that on arch that is solved by that libnotify depends on gdk-pixbuf2: https://www.archlinux.org/packages/extra/x86_64/libnotify/

So it may be a debian based issue. I think then that it would be better to just add it to the libnotify dependency for debian / ubuntu. Which already lists two packages.

I mean this line: Debian / Ubuntu: libnotify4 gir1.2-notify-0.7

solved by that libnotify depends on gdk-pixbuf2

You're right. In debian, libnotify4 depends on libgdk-pixbuf2.0-0 which is not the same thing. To install gir1.2-gdkpixbuf as a dependency you need to install libnotify-dev, which depends on libgdk-pixbuf2.0-dev, which depends on gir1.2-gdkpixbuf. Thing is that libnotify package is divided into two packages in debian, but libnotify-dev is a developer package with a lot of dependencies.

That clears things up, good to know, thanks.
