Subject: ExtUtil::PkgConfig
Hi I'm loading pm modules in order to run Gtk/glib a.s.o. on my Sunblade 100 (Solaris 8 ) I have loaded quite a lot of modules, but dependencies have led me to ExtUtils-PkgConfig-1.00, which installed 'successfully' then to try loading Glib-1.00rc2 When running perl Makefile.PL ; I get the following error: sh: pkg-config: not found *** can not find package gobject-2.0 >= 2.0.0 *** check that it is properly installed and available in PKG_CONFIG_PATH at Makefile.PL line 40 which I understand is due to the fact that perl 'shells' out to run pkg-config: ExtUtils::PkgConfig::find(/usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.1/ExtUtils/PkgConfig.pm:35): 35: while( $pkg and 36: system "pkg-config \"$pkg\" --exists --silence-errors" ) 37: { DB<3> s sh: pkg-config: not found Unfortunatly pkg-config is not a "solaris" package command (Debian? ) Most humbly yours Ivar B Kristvik PS: I run perl version v5.8.1 ; OS: SunOS 5.8 Generic_108528-23

pkgconfig may be found on freshmeat.net - and will compile but it is maybe something for documentation/prerequisits Ivar
