Trouble installing a great program!

penguinstarship · 2007-09-24 04:02:21

I've found a great app http://thelastripper.com/, for those of you who dig last.fm, this is one killer app. I can't seem to get it to ./configure. Here's my output

[tux@lovely thelastripper-1.1.1]$ ./configure 
checking for a BSD-compatible install... /bin/install -c
checking whether build environment is sane... yes
checking for a thread-safe mkdir -p... /bin/mkdir -p
checking for gawk... gawk
checking whether make sets $(MAKE)... yes
checking for pkg-config... no
configure: error: You need to install pkg-config

I'm used to Arch's simple package installation via pacman and I just can't seem to get this to ./configure. I've checked the repos for pkg-config but it's not in there, so I compiled and installed it it, but still a no go, anyone have any idea what's up?

As the error says, you need to install pkgconfig (pacman -S pkgconfig).

There is a package for this in AUR. You should really read the relevant wiki pages and learn how to use it. I'm sure any problems you have will be answered here.

Thank you for letting me know, I've found it in the AUR and installed it correctly and now this is the error I receive from running it from a terminal

Got a SIGSEGV while executing native code. This usually indicates
a fatal error in the mono runtime or one of the native libraries 
used by your application.

Aborted

Does anyone know what might be causing this error?

The warning at the start tells me you do you have you locale set up properly. See http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Locale . I'm not sure it that will fix the issue or not though.

penguinstarship · 2007-09-26 20:20:41

Thanks for the reply, I took care of the locales, but as you said that didn't fix the issue. Anyone else have any ideas?

Sigi · 2007-09-26 20:36:41

Its in the AUR, btw

penguinstarship · 2007-10-02 19:33:00

Sigi, I know that!

"Thank you for letting me know, I've found it in the AUR and installed it correctly and now this is the error I receive from running it from a terminal" from my last post! What do you think I can do to remedy this?
