Installing glitz, not working properly

Hey,

I am trying to install glitz, I run these commands
./configure
make
sudo make install (it shows errors if I don't use sudo)

Then I try and install cairo-dock-svn, but it keeps saying I have not installed the glitz package?

Am I doing somthing wrong?

Re: Installing glitz, not working properly

There is a glitz package in the community repo, so 'pacman -S glitz' should be all that's needed.

If you build software manually without any special configure options it will end up in /usr/local and that's not in the default search path for binaries or libraries.
So don't do that - instead, use a proper package or write your own PKGBUILD and make a package out of that. Having stuff lying around on your harddisk that's not being managed by the packaging tools sucks.

Re: Installing glitz, not working properly

For cairo-dock to compile/install correctly, you nee to use abs to compile your cairo package with glitz enabled or just use yaourt and:
yaourt -Rd cairo
yaourt -S cairo-wglitz
yaourt -S cairo-dock-svn
