ORBit2-2.12.2 and libxml2-2.6.20
Install GConf by running the following commands:
./configure --prefix=`pkg-config --variable=prefix ORBit-2.0` \ --libexecdir=`pkg-config --variable=prefix ORBit-2.0`/sbin \ --sysconfdir=/etc/gnome && make
This package does not come with a test suite.
Now, as the root user:
make install
--libexecdir=`pkg-config --variable=prefix ORBit-2.0`/sbin: This switch puts libexec files in $GNOME_PREFIX/sbin instead of $GNOME_PREFIX/libexec.
--sysconfdir=/etc/gnome: This switch puts GNOMEGConf-2 configuration files in /etc/gnome instead of $GNOME_PREFIX/etc. This installation controls all future installations of schemas. If you change the location (which includes eliminating this parameter), it must be consistent for every subsequent GNOMEGConf-2 package installation.
