I am attempting to compile 0.47 on Slackware 13.0. I run configure then hit a snag:
configure: error: libgc (the Boehm Conservative Collector) 6.4+, is needed to compile inkscape -- http://www.hpl.hp.com/personal/Hans_Boehm/gc
I have downloaded the code from the URL mentioned above, it compiles fine. Then I try to compile Inkscape, and it still gives me the above error.
I did "make uninstall" on the gc package and downloaded the exact 6.4 package. Compiled it...still no joy.
Uninstalled that.
Went to Slacky.eu and downloaded a precompiled gc 7.1 and installed that...
Still getting the same error.
What am I doing wrong? Is it looking for some sort of development headers? If so...whereinheck do I get those?
