xiphos installation

[isadora]

First, I must say I am new to linux and to Mageia. I downloaded a tar.gz (xiphos bible software) file and unzipped it to its own folder. I then opened the terminal and attempted to configure. The following is the error message:

Code: Select all

[root@localhost xiphos-4.0.2]# ./waf configure --prefix=/usr --debug-level=optimized
Linux detected
Check for program g++ or c++             : not found
/home/live/xiphos-4.0.2/wscript:162: error: The program ['g++', 'c++'] is required


I would assume that the "g++ or c++ program did not download with the initial unzip. Any help would be appreciated

Bibletime does not suit your needs?

For your question, simply install a compiler, you probably should install task-c++-devel

Please first read https://wiki.mageia.org/en/Installing_a ... rrectly.3F
and maybe https://wiki.mageia.org/en/Install_medi ... _beginners
to get started with software management in Mageia.

Thank you for your help, I installed compiler and then ran "./waf configure" again and the following is the the "fail" messages displayed:

----------------------------------------

I think that's pretty clear. It needs library version newer then 3.12 and newer then 3.14 and you only have 3.10.6 installed, so you cannot compile it on Mageia 4.

----------------------------------------
Checking for libgtkhtml4
pkg-config --errors-to-stdout --print-errors --modversion libgtkhtml-4.0
Package libgtkhtml-4.0 was not found in the pkg-config search path.

You are missing a package which contains at least the pkgconfig file libgtkhtml-4.0.pc and the relevant headers - either lib64gtkhtml4.0-devel or libgtkhtml4.0-devel.

Same as above, you either need lib64gtkhtml4.0-devel or libgtkhtml4.0-devel
