Missing packages error after running ./autogen.sh #18

Closed afparsons closed 9 years ago

afparsons commented 9 years ago

I'm encountering some sort of (likely resolvable) problem, though I'm not sure where to begin. Xubuntu 14.04, XFCE 4.10

$ ./autogen.sh --prefix=/usr

The required package gtk+-2.0 was not found on your system.

Ok, so after some googling, I believe I'm missing some sort of dependency. Therefore,

$ sudo apt-get install libx11-dev (~75mb...boahhh do I really need this?)

Then once more, $ ./autogen.sh --prefix=/usr

The required package libxfce4ui-1 was not found on your system.

I'm confused. I'm not really familiar with compiling plugins. Gut feeling tells me that I'm missing something from --prefix=/usr

Going ahead and compiling with make just results in,

No targets specified and no makefile found. Stop.

Thanks for the help.

Hello, I've not very much time at this moment that why I aswered you a bit late. Your problem concerning missing dependency to build the plugin. After installed theme the plugin should compilling find. I've just tested it on Debian Jessie with success. The package that you should install is libxfce4ui-1-dev, you have a complet list of requered packages for building the plugin on plugin_source_path/debian/control file.

You can also build a debian package with the folowing command: debuild -i -us -uc -b Install it with sudo dpkg --install package_name.deb

You can find documentation here about building a debian package : http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/gutsy/en/man1/debuild.1.html
