Re: gEDA-user: geda vs. SPARC

Hi!

I've had a similar problem to this.  It seems to stem from a pathing 
issue with the GDK/GTK packages.

Try creating a symlink from /usr/local/include/gtk-1.2/gdk and from 
/usr/local/include/gtk-1.2/gtk to /usr/include/gdk and /usr/include/gtk

That fixed the problem in my case.  Actually, a lot of configure/compile 
problems under Solaris can be traced back to paths.  Depending on the 
source of the package you install, you can get the headers in 
/usr/include, /usr/local/include, /opt/sfw/include, and a bunch of other 
places.  If your paths aren't set up to include all these directories, 
configure scripts might not find the required header files.  
Additionally, you might want to export a variable called 
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/include:/usr/local/include:/opt/sfw/include so that 
the linker will find all the libraries it wants.

Compiling Geda on Solaris can be a nightmare, especially when you're 
trying to find all the package dependencies.  Linux systems take a lot 
of packages for granted, and they may not be present on Solaris systems. 
This said, I've been able to compile most of the applications under 
Solaris, including tclspice, pcb, and the waveform viewers, and I have 
to say that the geda-docs package was a big pain in the butt to get to 
work. 
Maybe we Solaris folk should get together and write a little howto, 
including required packages, libraries, path issues, etc.
