Cannot install on Ubuntu #1

Closed 29axe closed 8 years ago

29axe commented 8 years ago

Couldn't install this plugin. At first I had to install 'libgtk2.0-dev' in order to run command make successfuly (this should be indicated in README) So I installed it with command: sudo apt-get install libgtk2.0-dev

Then I had this issue when running sudo make install:

rm -f /usr/lib64/geany/jsonprettifier. rm -f /usr/lib64/geany/json_prettifier.\
cp -f ./jsonprettifier.so /usr/lib64/geany cp: cannot create regular file '/usr/lib64/geany': No such file or directory Makefile:22: recipe for target 'startinstall' failed make: *\ [startinstall] Error 1

I have no idea what to do about that error and I have to give up.. :(

Thanks for the feedback! I have updated the dependencies list. The installation under Ubuntu should be fixed now.

Thanks. Will try that when I have time :)

Hello zhgzhg, on an ubuntu 18, the compilation failed because of another missing dependency; pkg-config --cflags geany returned

Package gtk+-3.0 was not found in the pkg-config search path.
Perhaps you should add the directory containing `gtk+-3.0.pc'
to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable
Package 'gtk+-3.0', required by 'geany', not found

preventing geanyplugin.h to be resolved;

it was resolved by adding sudo apt install libgtk-3-dev

thank you a lot for your plugin, very useful! Dominique.

Thanks for the the notes! I've updated the README.md accordly. I am glad that the plugin does the job for you!
