RE: gEDA-user: geda install SUSE 10.0

Hi Gene,

Maybe I am wrong and what I used to install gEda on Ubuntu Dapper it
will not work for you. I was forced to install libgtk (check your
current version) AND libgtk-dev. Only after that my system reported gtk
as installed. Similar for some other three or four packages. For some
reasons, the Ubuntu distro is splitting those packages and you will need
to install both of them. Be aware, there are many more packages you will
need to install in order to enjoy gEDA (check dependencies).

Subject: gEDA-user: geda install SUSE 10.0

I am trying to install geda version 2006124.iso onto a SUSE 10.0 system.
Even though I have installed gtk, gtk2 and wxgtk, the installer says
they are missing. So, it installs wxgtk but still wants gtk. I tried to
install the version of gtk that is on the install disc but it wants
XFREE86. SUSE doesn't use this program for a whole number of reasons. I
do have the SUSE substitute of
xorg-X11 series but geda doesn't seem to recognize any of these.
Other than using a different linux system, does anyone have any
suggestions on how to solve this problem?

Thanks for your help.

Gene
