Installation of Libgnomeui

Install libgnomeui by running the following commands:

make

This package does not come with a test suite.

Now, as the root user: 

make install

Command Explanations

--libexecdir=`pkg-config --variable=prefix ORBit-2.0`/sbin: This switch puts libexec files in $GNOME_PREFIX/sbin instead of $GNOME_PREFIX/libexec.

Configuring Libgnomeui

Some applications cannot properly discover the libglade interface library installed by libgnomeui.

Add the following line to the system-wide /etc/profile file, or to individual user's ~/.profile or ~/.bashrc files: 

export LIBGLADE_MODULE_PATH=$GNOME_PREFIX/lib/libglade/2.0
