Installation of Libgnomecanvas

[Note]

Note

The instructions below are based on installing the package into a GNOME-2 environment. If, for whatever reason, you're installing this package without having ORBit2 and the core GNOME-2 libraries installed, you'll need to modify the --prefix= parameter on the configure script to point to your desired installation path (e.g., --prefix=/usr).

Install libgnomecanvas by running the following commands:

./configure --prefix=`pkg-config --variable=prefix ORBit-2.0` &&
make

To test the results, issue: make check.

Now, as the root user:

make install
