I am using Fedora 16, when I issue this command: <blockquote style="margin:0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex" class="gmail_quote">./autogen.sh --with-num-cpus=2 </blockquote> I hit this error: <blockquote style="margin:0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex" class="gmail_quote">configure: error: Package requirements (gnome-vfs-2.0 >= 2.6.0 ) were not met: No package 'gnome-vfs-2.0' found Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you installed software in a non-standard prefix. Alternatively, you may set the environment variables GNOMEVFS_CFLAGS and GNOMEVFS_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config. See the pkg-config man page for more details. </blockquote> I have downloaded the gnome-vfs from this source > <a href="http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/view/svn/gnome/gnome-vfs.html">http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/view/svn/gnome/gnome-vfs.html</a>, but I found out that it was a deprecated package. Before I proceed to install this package, I would like to check is there any alternative solution on this issue? If this is the only solution, as according to the installation guideline of gnome-vfs (I have extract the text below), the sysconfdir is pointing to /etc/gnome/<a href="http://2.30.2.">2.30.2.</a> I don't find this path in my system. May I know how could I find a valid sysconfdir value? <blockquote style="margin:0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex" class="gmail_quote"><pre class="userinput"><kbd class="command">./configure --prefix=$(pkg-config --variable=prefix ORBit-2.0) \ --sysconfdir=/etc/gnome/2.30.2 \ --libexecdir=$(pkg-config \ --variable=prefix ORBit-2.0)/lib/gnome-vfs-2.0 && make</kbd></pre></blockquote> THanks @!
