Hi Guys,

Carl and I just tried out installation of Inkscape onto his SuSE 9.x

box

using autopackage, but ran into a dependency issue for "GTK 2 C++ bindings". I'm assuming that is the gtkmm2 package. It said that

this

would need to be installed manually, however we couldn't find what package this corresponds to for SuSE (looking at YaST and

rpmfind.net.)

Do you have a suggestion for where we can find this package? Also, it would be nice if the GUI gave some directions to look when it fails to find a dependency.

Btw, we tried the redhat 9 rpm's for gtkmm2, but they had half a dozen dependency issues for perl and some other base libs, so didn't look feasible.

Also, I re-ran the installer on my own system (which I had successfully installed with autopackage previously), and it installed without trouble. I didn't have to install gtkmm2 myself as far as I remember.

$ rpm -qa | grep gtkmm gtkmm-1.2.10-143 gtkmm-devel-1.2.10-143 $

I tried the autopackage last night on Fedora-1 and it worked perfectly. Impressive how smoothly it worked.

I have added links to find gtkmm2 and friends for Suse 9.0 on the wiki under "Compiling inkscape" Suse 9.1 comes with all the needed libraries for Inkscape.

Cheers, Peter
