The gal package contains library functions that came from Gnumeric and Evolution. Currently only Evolution needs to have this installed, if you're not installing Evolution, you should not be installing gal.
Install gal by running the following commands:
./configure --prefix=/opt/gnome --disable-gtk-doc && make && make install |
--prefix=/opt/gnome : Install gal in the Gnome 1.4 area.
As with most libraries, there is no configuration to do, save that the library directory i.e. /usr/lib or /usr/local/lib should appear in /etc/ld.so.conf so that ldd can find the shared libraries. After checking that this is the case, /sbin/ldconfig should be run while logged in as root.
The gal package contains library routines refactored from Evolution and Gnumeric.
