I'm installing irssi, a text only IRC chat program on Fedora Core 3.
<br>
<br>
The INSTALL file says that it needs Glib and my system has it.
<br>
<br>
The instructions say to:
<br>
<br>
untar it and the cd to the irssi*** directory.
<br>
<br>
then ./configure
<br>
<br>
su
<br>
make
<br>
make install
<br>
<br>
./configure
<br>
<br>
outputs:
<br>
<br>
# ./configure
<br>
checking for a BSD-compatible install... /usr/bin/install -c
<br>
checking whether build environment is sane... yes
<br>
checking whether make sets $(MAKE)... yes

See `config.log' for more details.
<br>
<br>
<br>
ok so config.log says:
<br>
a lot!
<br>
<br>
well i checked this out in freenode #fedora and was told to 'build'
everything like this:
<br>
<br>
<i class="moz-txt-slash"><span class="moz-txt-tag">/</span>lib/modules<span
class="moz-txt-tag">/</span></i>`uname -r`/build
<br>
<br>
but i have no clue how to do that.
<br>
<br>
do i type:
<br>
$.<i class="moz-txt-slash"><span class="moz-txt-tag">/</span>configure
/lib/modules<span class="moz-txt-tag">/</span></i>`uname -r`/build
<br>
same result as $./configure
<br>
<br>
#make <i class="moz-txt-slash"><span class="moz-txt-tag">/</span>lib/modules<span
class="moz-txt-tag">/</span></i>`uname -r`/build
<br>
make: Nothing to be done for `<i class="moz-txt-slash"><span
class="moz-txt-tag">/</span>lib/modules/2.6.10-1.741_FC3/build<span
class="moz-txt-tag">/</span></i>'.
<br>
<br>
just to make sure that `uname -r` was right i tried it with <i
class="moz-txt-slash"><span class="moz-txt-tag">/</span>lib/modules/2.6.10-1.741_FC3/build<span
class="moz-txt-tag">/</span></i>
<br>
<br>
Does anyone know how to solve this problem?
<br>
<br>
do you need to see the output of config.log?
<br>
<br>
if so:
