GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 603054
fails to build on missing tracker-explorer
Last modified: 2009-12-16 12:08:52 UTC
This is with 0.7.6 (as found in JHBuild), there is enable_tracker_explorer=auto in the configure.ac script, but the tracker-explorer still causes the configure script to abort with: configure: error: Couldn't find tracker-explorer dependencies (glib-2.0 >= 2.16.0 gthread-2.0 >= 2.16.0 gmodule-2.0 >= 2.16.0 gtk+-2.0 >= 2.16.0 dbus-1 >= 1.0 dbus-glib-1 >= 0.78 gee-1.0 >= 0.3).
libgee-1.0 is not part of the GNOME official module sets, so it's kind of important not to require it, as the whole tracker experience for people building gnome with jhbuild shouldn't be a build error... Thanks.
This should be fixed now. It was a configure.ac script error. Thanks for reporting this. The same issue was there for some of the other UI elements too.
