RE: [PLUG] GLIB problems


Using a 'make uninstall' in the source directory will uninstall it I
believe. But, and others may want to interject here, uninstalling glib isn't
such a great idea. I have no experience on Mandrake but I know glib can be a
slippery slope if you start randomly uninstalling parts to it.


Im not sure how much this will help but I suppose any comment is helpful to
some degree.


Chris.

Subject: [PLUG] GLIB problems

	Hello, PLUGgers. Thanks to Mike Leone for telling me about this
list.

	My question is this. I'm trying to install the XMMS multimedia
player 
on my Mandrake 10.0 desktop, w/limited success. Each time, it tells me 
that I need to install GLIB 1.2.2 or better.

	So, I installed GLIB 1.2.9. But ./configure for XMMS told me that I 
actually had 1.2.10 installed. So, I tried to install GLIB 1.2.2- same 
result.

	I suppose the problem is that I need to remove the old version of
glib 
entirely before I can install the new version. But how do I do that? I 
looked around for glib directories, and found quite a few- and I don't 
think that removing each one individually would be a wonderful idea.

	Any help?
