Installing on Solaris 10 x86

Hi all,

    I am trying to install xfce in my solaris10x86.

     I have used the "./xfce4-4.4.1-installer.run" script, and this appear to run fine:

Xfce GTK+ engine and themes
Running configure... done
Running make all... done
Running make install... done
Cleaning up... done
Xfce Icon Theme
Running configure... done
Running make all... done
Running make install... done
Cleaning up... done

But with the xfce utility library:

Xfce Utility Library
Running configure... done
Running make all... failed

The error log saids:

What could be the problem, and how can I solved it??

you may want to save yourself compile  headaches and download packages from opensolaris

You might have 2 glibs on you pc, and linking agains the old one. Make sure you compile and link agains Glib 2.10+

Re: Installing on Solaris 10 x86

i just compiled 4.4.2 on solaris sparc. compiled the
tarball from source. grabbed the latest dependencies
from blastwave.org. my enviroment

PATH=/opt/csw/bin:/opt/csw/sbin:/usr/sfw/bin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/usr/sbin:/data/dev/ SUNWspro/bin:/data/dev/netbeans/bin:/usr/ccs/bin:/usr/dt/bin:/usr/openwin/bin:/u sr/sfw/bin:$EPATH/bin
LDFLAGS="-L/opt/csw/lib,-L/usr/sfw/lib,-R/opt/csw/lib,-R/usr/sfw/lib"
PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig:/opt/csw/lib/pkgconfig
CCDIR=/opt/csw/bin
CC=${CCDIR}/gcc
CXX=${CCDIR}/g++

alias tar='gtar'
alias make='gmake'

but the packages from opensolaris should work. just make usre you install other dependenies like SUNWpcre etc.
it worked for me.

Any chance I could get the binaries from you?

Thanks in advance!
