Running configure throws sh command not found error
Closed this issue · 2 comments
I'm running Parabola Linux and when I try to do ./configure from the root directory, it seems to run normally until this is outputted:
'''Check for required system libraries:
- Cairo sh: pkg-config: command not found
sh: pkg-config: command not found
not found!
In order to build java-gnome, you will need the GNOME
development libraries. Depending on what you have installed,
this could be a considerable set of packages, but if you
want to be a GNOME hacker, that's the way it is.
On a Arch system, you should be able to satisfy this
requirement by doing:
# pacman -S cairo
Failed to complete configuration.'''
I think that's saying you need pkg-config installed, which is (on a Fedora system) provided by the pkg-config package. Perhaps something similar will work in your case. Good luck!
Ugh, stupid me. I installed it with pacman -S pkg-config since I'm running Parabola, which is a derivative of Arch. Thanks for the reply, anyway.
