[Mrtrix-discussion] having trouble building on CentOS 6

Tue Mar 19 16:19:54 PDT 2013

That's what I expected, too, but RHEL doesn't come with the -devel bundles for this stuff:

[root at musca dx-4.4.4]# yum -y install gtkmm24-devel
Loaded plugins: refresh-packagekit, rhnplugin
This system is receiving updates from RHN Classic or RHN Satellite.
Setting up Install Process
No package gtkmm24-devel available.
Error: Nothing to do
[root at musca dx-4.4.4]# yum -y install gtkmm24-devel-2.18.2-1
Loaded plugins: refresh-packagekit, rhnplugin
This system is receiving updates from RHN Classic or RHN Satellite.
Setting up Install Process
No package gtkmm24-devel-2.18.2-1 available.
Error: Nothing to do
[root at musca dx-4.4.4]# yum -y list gtkmm\*
Loaded plugins: refresh-packagekit, rhnplugin
This system is receiving updates from RHN Classic or RHN Satellite.
Installed Packages
gtkmm24.x86_64     2.18.2-1.el6     @anaconda-RedHatEnterpriseLinux-201009221801.x86_64/6.0

so it's not clear to me where what you found actually comes from.

The runtime would only contain the libraries, and the development package should contain everything needed to compile against it, including headers and hopefully the relevant pkg-config file. I came across this on my search: http://pkgs.org/centos-6-rhel-6/centos-rhel-i386/gtkmm24-devel-2.18.2-1.el6.i686.rpm.html - looks like it might fit the bill...?
