The gnome-libs package contains the gnome libraries. This is useful as a foundation for the GNOME desktop and applications.
gnome-libs depends on: ORBit-0.5.17, GTK+-1.2.10, imlib-1.9.14 and db-3.3.11 or db-4.1.25 gnome-libs will utilize: audiofile-0.2.3, esound-0.2.29 and gtk-doc-1.0 |
Install gnome-libs by running the following commands:
./configure --prefix=/opt/gnome --disable-gtk-doc && make && make install |
/opt/gnome/etc/mime-magic, /opt/gnome/etc/paper.config, /opt/gnome/etc/sound/events/gnome.soundlist and /opt/gnome/etc/sound/events/gtk-events.soundlist
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.

libgnome is the non-GUI part of the GNOME library.
