The problem of creating PyGTK on CentOS

I am trying to create PyGTK on CentOS for non-standard Python (2.6, compared to source code 2.4). This requires me to build pygobject first. pygobject-2.18.0 does not work during the configuration phase. The error messages are as follows:

checking for GLIB - version >= 2.14.0... no
*** Could not run GLIB test program, checking why...
*** The test program failed to compile or link. See the file config.log for the
*** exact error that occured. This usually means GLIB is incorrectly installed.
configure: error: maybe you want the pygobject-2-4 branch?

I downloaded, built and successfully installed glib.

The config.log file contains the following output:

conftest.c:27:18: error: glib.h: No such file or directory
conftest.c: In function 'main':
conftest.c:33: error: 'glib_major_version' undeclared (first use in this function)
conftest.c:33: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once
conftest.c:33: error: for each function it appears in.)
conftest.c:33: error: 'glib_minor_version' undeclared (first use in this function)
conftest.c:33: error: 'glib_micro_version' undeclared (first use in this function)
configure:13844: $? = 1

What am I doing wrong?

It looks like your version of glib is not updated.

In gentoo, the following versions are used in PyGTK 2.16.0:

  • glib 2.8.0
  • pygobject-2.16.1
  • pycairo 2.0.1
