the "./configure" is ok, but when i "make" an error like this

You probably need to apply the gold patch from the srpm

http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/r...?rpmID=2351741

Code:

/usr/bin/ld: note: 'g_object_unref' is defined in DSO /lib/libgobject-2.0.so.0 so try adding it to the linker command line

This means you need to add the option '-lgobject-2.0' to the linker command. If there is a Makefile in the directory try to find a line 'LIBS = ' (with a lot of '-lsomething' probably already following it), and add '-lgobject-2.0' to it.

Check the configure script ("./configure --help" usually works).

Frequently there are ways to specify additional libraries as needed to
the configure step.

hehehe.. i don't understand about gold patch..

i'm newbie.. but i will try to search about that.

@beepald: i already search with your direction, but i found a lot of "LIBS", should i add "-l libgobject-2.0" to all LIBS?

@jpollard : can you give an example how to use "LIBS" with ./configure??

Thank you all for your reply

You apply the patch like this (you may need to install wget & patch first ie: yum install wget patch)

Code:

wget ftp://ftp.gimp.org/pub/gimp/v2.6/gimp-2.6.11.tar.bz2
tar -xvf gimp-2.6.11.tar.bz2
cd gimp-2.6.11
wget http://leigh123linux.fedorapeople.org/pub/patches/gimp-2.6.8-gold.patch
 patch -p1 <  gimp-2.6.8-gold.patch
./configure    --with-libtiff --with-libjpeg --with-libpng --with-libmng --with-libexif \
    --with-gtkhtml2 --with-librsvg --with-poppler --with-gnomevfs --with-alsa \
    --with-webkit --with-dbus --with-script-fu
make
su
make install

You can type:

Code:

$ env LDFLAGS="-lgobject-2.0 -lglib-2.0" ./configure

And then run 'make' again. The options in the LDFLAGS variable are added to the linker commands, I added the glib-2.0 library as well, because I tested it and got a similar error for that library. With these two libraries, it should get a lot further (though I haven't actually finished the compile, so I won't promise that other errors won't come up later...).

thank you for your explanation so far.. i got a new learning and method from you..

Hey, this problem has solved...!!!

bepaald, i follow your direction to search Makefile and add linker command -lgobject-2.0 at "LIBS= ....." but i edit the Makefile in the directory where the problem is found..

ex:

Code:

libtool: link: gcc -g -O2 -Wall -Wdeclaration-after-statement -Wmissing-prototypes -Wmissing-declarations -Winit-self -Wpointer-arith -Wold-style-definition -o .libs/gimp-thumbnail-list gimp-thumbnail-list.o ./.libs/libgimpthumb-2.0.so -pthread -Wl,-rpath -Wl,/usr/local/lib
/usr/bin/ld: gimp-thumbnail-list.o: undefined reference to symbol 'g_object_unref'
/usr/bin/ld: note: 'g_object_unref' is defined in DSO /lib/libgobject-2.0.so.0 so try adding it to the linker command line
/lib/libgobject-2.0.so.0: could not read symbols: Invalid operation
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make[2]: *** [gimp-thumbnail-list] Error 1
make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/ghoz/gimp-2.6.11/libgimpthumb'
make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/ghoz/gimp-2.6.11'
make: *** [all] Error 2

the problem found in the directory /home/ghoz/gimp-2.6.11/libgimpthumb, so i edit the Makefile in the directory libgimpthumb and i add -lgobject-2.0 at "LIBS=" if the problem show again and i did like that again.. and so on

Thank you all for your answer..

I want to ask two question.. when i install gimp from source the size of my gimp 354.5 mb.. but when i install from "yum install gimp" just 46 mb. i'm confused about this..???

Best Regards,

Your friend

Thats one, you haven't stripped the debugging from it.

how i stripped the debugging from that software (gimp)??

oh yes leigh123linux, i'd installed the gimp in my /home/$USER/Download folder.. and installed the UFRaw (to Manipulate raw images) from repo "yum install UFRaw". And, i turn to edit my fhoto from UFRaw, after that i want to export the fhoto that i edit on UFRaw to GIMP.. the fact is failed..!!!

so, i try install gimp from repo "yum install gimp", so i have 2 GIMP on my laptop..

. i try again export the fhoto that i edit on UFRaw to GIMP.. and this is succeed..!!! i'm happy about that..

and i try erase the gimp "yum erase gimp", and i edit again my fhoto from UFRaw and when i want to export to GIMP, the errors come again..

Do have any a clue about that?? or i must create a symlink the gimp in my folder to /usr/bin?? sorry if I bother you..

Best Regards,

Your friend
