some modules fail to build such as xmms... here is the basic setup:

Lunar 1.6.0...

XOrg 7.1
fresh install, using NVIDIA-beta

xmms fails with:

"checking for GTK - version >= 1.2.2... no"

however, GTK is installed, version 1.2.10


if I manually go into /usr/src/xmms-1.2.10 and do: ./configure --with-gtk-prefix=/usr
it will build fine... however... I tried editing /var/lib/lunar/moonbase/audio/xmms/BUILD to do this automatically so that there would be a proper installation stat for xmms, and when I try to lin it, its like its not even using the BUILD script... what am I doing wrong or missing here?

You shouldn't really be editting files in the moonbase itself, because these will be overwritten next time you download the moonbase. Copy the files to zlocal using the instructions in the Installing modules not part of the moonbase article in the Installing Lunar forum.

Once you've updated your zlocal copy, remember to update the UPDATED field in the DETAILS file, then try running lin xmms again. If that doesn't help, try posting here again, and someone else might be able to help with more specific advice.

More information on the moonbase and modules can be found on the Documentation pages.

I only do that as a quick and dirty way to test instead of copying to zlocal, etc... I know it is going to erase my changes in the moonbase anyway which is why I do it there... this way no harm no foul Smile

The problem is not the version or anything else... the problem is that the configure script is not detecting the presence of GTK+ 1.2.10 and in fact, NOTHING is detecting it... if I do "lin --opts '--with-gtk-prefix=/usr' {modulename}" that is supposed to pass that additional option to configure, but it doesn't.... maybe the compile scripts or "lin" command is broken... ie; not passing those options on...
