Description Thomas Klausner 2003-04-15 10:17:47 UTC 
gnet-2.0.0 has completely switch to only using pkgconfig; gnet-config
is no more.

pan relies on gnet-config to find gnet.

Please use pkg-config instead (just use AM_PATH_GNET_2_0), and adapt to
gnet-2.0.0, if necessary.

Thanks.

Marking this for 0.14.1.

I'm not going to use GNet 2 until the Windows port was ready,
GNet 2 also doesn't build out of the box on my Solaris box
(http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=110859).

However if you'd like to do a patch for configure.in that
will check for GNet 2 with pkg-config, and then fall back to
gnet-config, I'd be happy to take that and put it in 0.14.0.
The xml2 checks in configure.in would make a good template.

From another person reporting the same bug to pan@rebelbase:

gnet-2.0.1 is out, and supposedly fixes the Solaris problems.
I understand that the API is different to the gnet-1.* series,
so i don't expect you to update immediately.
