How to install cryptkeeper?

[EmptySoul]

Hi i am new to linux and do not really know how to use it...

I have been searching online for guides to install cryptkeeper but can not seem to find one that i can get to work...

So at the moment i have

cryptkeeper-0.9.5.tar.gz in my Home>Downloads folder

I also have extracted the folder.. so the files from the .tar.gz are also located

Home>Downloads>cryptkeeper>cryptkeeper-0.9.5

but i do not know how to install the files... i have tried going to the package manager but when i search "cryptkeeper" or "crypt keeper" there are no results...

I have seen online that i need to install it from the terminal command line and not by a GUI...

I have gone into the command line and I have gone to the folder were the files are..

Home/Downloads/cryptkeeper/cryptkeeper-0.9.5/

but i don't know what to do now

... ooookay so i have been looking around....

I have found out how to install it. It seems simple enough..

./configure
make
make install

except It wont make the 'makefile' it says I don't have

gconf-2.0

So i downloaded 'gconf-2.32.3[/quote]

but when i try to ./configure those files it tells me that i don't have Orbit... So i downloaded Orbit... and tried to ./configure that....

checking for libIDL-2.0 >= 0.7.4 glib-2.0 >= 2.0.0 gobject-2.0 >= 2.0.0 gmodule-2.0 >= 2.0.0... Package libIDL-2.0 was not found in the pkg-config search path. Perhaps you should add the directory containing `libIDL-2.0.pc' to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable No package 'libIDL-2.0' found
configure: error: Library requirements ( libIDL-2.0 >= 0.7.4 glib-2.0 >= 2.0.0 gobject-2.0 >= 2.0.0 gmodule-2.0 >= 2.0.0) not met; consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if your libraries are in a nonstandard prefix so pkg-config can find them.
