libgaminggear installation error

Post by stype09 » 2017/05/27 05:52:53

Hi Everyone,
i'm new here and would like to seek some help figuring installation libgaminggear.
I'm currently running gnome on centos 7.

The following error messages as I was trying to compile:
cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX="/usr" ..
-- Using /dev/uhid
-- checking for module 'cairo'
-- package 'cairo' not found
-- checking for module 'gdk-2.0'
-- package 'gdk-2.0' not found
-- checking for module 'gdk-pixbuf-2.0'
-- package 'gdk-pixbuf-2.0' not found
-- checking for module 'gtk+-2.0'
-- package 'gtk+-2.0' not found
CMake Error at cmake_modules/FindGTK.cmake:39 (MESSAGE):
Could not find GTK
Call Stack (most recent call first):
CMakeLists.txt:45 (FIND_PACKAGE)
I'm not sure why installation doesn't detect these modules, even when they exist. Am I missing something here?

In many cases, you need the devel version of the package. For example, if it says it's missing cairo, see if you have cairo-devel installed.
To see the difference you can use, once you have both installed

Code: Select all

rpm -ql cairo

Code: Select all

rpm -ql cairo-devel
(That's a lower case letter L for list).

Hi scottro,

Thank you for the reply!
I have not gotten the time to respond back in time.
I ran an update and it does seem like I have the latest cairo-devel installed already.
Could it be possible that the version of cairo is different to what libgaminggear is searching for?
