I'm currently trying to install gtk3 on scientific linux (It is not available on official repositories) I'm well used to yum, apt, pacman etc but i'm a little lost here when it's about compiling ...
to install gtk3, i need glib, to install glib, i need pcre 8.32.
I thus downloaded the tarball from their site. Once 'untarred', i followed what is written on that link : http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/view/svn/general/pcre.html
but once i've made './configure' with its options, 'make', and then 'make install' glib doesn't configure any better... it says my version is still the old version
configure: error: Package requirements (libpcre >= 8.13) were not met: Requested 'libpcre >= 8.13' but version of libpcre is 7.8
The files seems to be well compiled but not 'moved correctly to the right place' ... Did i miss something ? By the way moving to another distro is not an option :P
