You can do this by installing the unstable libraries into a different prefix. +e.g. ./configure --prefix=/usr/devgnome2 + +When using the development libraries, you will need to modify some environment variables. This will be easier if you create a file (e.g. devgnome2) in your home directory that contains these commands: + +export PATH="/usr/devgnome2/bin:$PATH"; export LD_LIBRARY_PATH="/usr/devgnome2/lib" ; export PKG_CONFIG_PATH="/usr/devgnome2/lib/pkgconfig:$PKG_CONFIG_PATH" ; + +You can then type +# source devgnome2 +to prepare your environment before building or working with the development libraries. + +You may also need to edit /etc/ld.so.conf to add /usr/devgnome2/lib, and then type /sbin/ldconfig to re-process the ld.so.conf. + + +The vicious-build-scripts module in cvs.gnome.org might help you with this, if you can get it to work. + +Required Libraries +------------------ + +* Of course, you will need gtk+ 2 and its dependencies. +* libsigc++ 1.2 (A release, or libsigc++-1.2 from cvs) |
