    You don't have the gcc compiler installed. Insert your openSuSE dvd and from Yast->software management install gcc

    Unhappy Gnuitar Install

    Great tip everything was loading fine until I got an error message saying:

    configure: error: Test for GLIB2 failed.

    should I load the suse dvd and run yast to install GLIB2?

    really in the dark about what GLIB2 is a little history on it would help also. (I will google it first .)

    It's funny because I try to install the program and it's like installing, installing, INSTALLING oh no can do it. lol

    well, please send me some suggestions we will get the program running soon. THANKS!

    Just check if you have glib2 installed.
    rpm -qa glib2
    If it is already installed, unfortunately I don't know what is going wrong
