Want to know more about installing gtk
Submitted by yogi on Mon, 2007-04-23 09:32.
following are the steps i followed to install gtk on mac
Copied gtk-osx-build script,Makefile and install-check.c in gtk-build folder.
cd ~/gtk-build
make install (as root user)
gtk-osx-build bootstrap
it gives "bash:gtk-osx-build:command not found"
Hi, You do not need to be
Hi,
You do not need to be root to run/install the build script, it's most of the time better to build as your normal user. Just make sure that the directory you are installing into (/opt/gtk by default) is writable to by your user, for example by making it owned by your user.
The error message you get above just means that your ~/bin is not in your path. Either add it, or point directly to the script, like this:
/gtk-osx-build bootstrap
Hope that helps.

that probably means the servers that host libtool are down. just wait until they get back up
if it really doesn't get fixed, perhaps then another mirror could be used

Which version of git do you
Which version of git do you have? Is it possible that you have a bad network connection? Do you get that error every time, or only once?

Pulling into a black hole?

Git-core 0.99 is very old. I am using 1.5.0.5, but 1.4 and forward should work fine.

Do you have an old cairo
Do you have an old cairo source dir that is "in the way"? Try removing that if so.

Are you behind a proxy? If
Are you behind a proxy? If so, you could try this:
export http_proxy="http://proxyhost/"
git clone git://git.cairographics.org/git/cairo
where proxyhost is the hostname for the proxy. Or for example username:password@host:port if you need more settings for the proxy.
i tried the above mentioned
i tried the above mentioned approach,it didnt work.
So i downloaded all modules from the http link and changed the file path from "http://.. to file:///...".
It worked for all modules till gtk+.It gave following error.
/bin/sh: line 1: glib-mkenums: command not found
make[1]: *** [gtktypebuiltins.c] Error 127
make: *** [install-recursive] Error 1
Exactly how did you try to
Exactly how did you try to build? Still using the build script? Otherwise you have to enter the build shell if you are trying to build things manually, for example:
gtk-osx-build
./autogen.sh --prefix=/opt/gtk
make && make install
etc...
Are you or are you not
Are you or are you not behind a proxy? It's interesting to know in order to try and figure out why git isn't working for you.

Got following error while installing gossip.

Gossip is only included as a
Gossip is only included as a test case so if you don't need/want to use Gossip there is no point in building it. If you only want GKT+, do
gtk-osx-build build core
not "build all".
Regarding the cairo/git/proxy problems, I have today added a way to workaround that, e.g.:
USE_CAIRO_TARBALL=1 gtk-osx-build build cairo
