Hi Martin,
In the older versions of glib and gtk, there were custom programs (like
glib-config and gtk-config) that would allow configure to query the set of
include files that these packages supplied. In newer versions of glib and
gtk, this configuration resides in a .pc file; e.g. gtk-2.0.pc defines the
dependencies for gtk. A new program called pkg-config was written to parse
these .pc files.
If gpsim is configured without the gui, it will revert to the older style
of querying for glib dependencies. In other words, gpsim calls
glib-config. This means that you need to install the old version of glib.
On my system:
$ glib-config --version
1.2.10
You can find glib-1.2.10 here:
http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/sources/glib/1.2/
and specifically.
http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/sources/glib/1.2/glib-1.2.10.tar.gz
Now, I just tried to build gpsim without the gui and it fails in
cli/input.cc. I went ahead and fixed this and checked the changes into
CVS. It may be a few hours before this available in the public repository.
As another option, you can try configuring gpsim with the gui. Once built,
you can disable the gui by invoking gpsim with the '-i' option.
