I'm still not clear on how to install the different types of packages. I've dl the .tar.gz and extracted gpredict 5 to my home directory. I tried following the install text and seem to be missing most of these libs. I looked by searching synaptic.How do I get them in Breezy?
Instructions:
In order to compile and install Gnome Predict from source you will need
the following libraries:
* gnome-libs and gnomeui-libs 1.4 (NOT 2.0!)
* GConf 1.0.4
* gdk-pixbuf and libgnomecanvaspixbuf 0.8
* gnome-vfs and libgnome-vfs 1.0
* gnome-print and libgnomeprint 0.25
* libgal 0.11
If you are using a fairly new linux distribution and you have Gnome installed,
these libraries are probably installed already. Note, however, that you will
also need the header files which are usually included in the so called develop-
ment packages, ie. gnome-libs-devel, gnome-print-devel etc. If you are unsure,
just go on to the next section - you will be notified during compilation, if
you need any of the above libraries.
2. Installation
---------------
To install Gnome Predict from source you type:
./configure --disable-nls
make
su [enter root password]
make install
(If you got the source code from the CVS repository, you should run './autogen.sh'
instead of './configure'.)
If you don't get any errors during these steps, Gnome Predict should be installed
This is the output from running ./configure --disable-nls
