Gyachi Installation Failed!!!!!!

[reiko]

Hi friends Tried Installing GYACHI a Chat protocol which is a replica of Yahoo messenger and has all features like Voice chat, Webcam etc., I downloaded it and tried to install but it gave me the following error

# ./configure
Please read INSTALL.txt

Contents of Install.txt

Steps for building a gyachi executable

1) use the autogen script to generate a configure script:

        ./autogen.sh

2) run configure, with any options that you might prefer:

        ./configure --disable-rpath --enable-maintainer-mode --prefix /usr --enable-v4l2

3) To generate a Fedora/RedHat spec file

        make gyachi.spec

   To build an image that will be installed over existing executables
   (not recommended):

        make
        make install

Now when i run ./autogen.sh i'm getting this error!!!!

# ./autogen.sh
searching for GNU gettext intl directory...
 -> /usr/share/gettext/intl ... no
 -> /usr/local/share/gettext/intl ... no

ERROR: Cannot find gettext/intl directory.

How to fix this one!!!!!!!!!Pls help me!!!!!!!!

Just do what it says: install gettext
Look in your distro's package manager.

Yep. You might need to install some gettext-dev or -devel package as well.

Before continuing, check the README or INSTALL file in that package. The dependencies should be listed anywhere. My guess if that you also need the devel packages for gtk+-2 and glib. But there could be some more.

Hello ppl after googling they provided me a trick

./configure --enable-shared=bfd,gdb

I followed it and now I m getting a new error

checking for GTKHTML... configure: error: Package requirements (libgtkhtml-2.0 >= 2.0) were not met:

No package 'libgtkhtml-2.0' found

Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you
installed software in a non-standard prefix.

Alternatively, you may set the environment variables GTKHTML_CFLAGS
and GTKHTML_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config.
See the pkg-config man page for more details.

Now How can I escape from this problem!!!!!!!!!!! I installed gtkhtml2 using my package manager!!!!!!!!!!

[i92guboj]

The error is giving you the solution. Install everything that's missing. To compile stuff you need the source for all the implied libraries. As I already told you: use the README, INSTALL or whatever docs are included to determine all the dependencies and install them.

If there's no documentation in the tarball go to the web site, forums, mailing lists or whatever. Or just continue the try and error method until you have installed all the related -devel packages.

apt-get install the following:
libgtkhtml2-dev
libjasper-dev
imagemagick

libgtkhtml2-dev is definitely needed and the last two i did just to be sure.
