I would take a look at dbus and dbus bindings did u install dbus? from BLFS

No it is not.

- The version used is wrong, why 0.72, while the BLFS book talks about and uses 0.88,
- Why first a make install and then ./configure --prefix=${PREFIX} && make && make, both are wrong. Follow the BLFS book when installing some package that is mentioned there. To install dbus glib follow these BLFS instructions

I would take a look at dbus and dbus bindings did u install dbus? from BLFS sorry double post

hi druuna
i installed dbus glib :fhttp://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/view/svn/general/dbus-bindings.html

while doing exo-0.6.0-its asked :
- Error : Atleast one of the required Perl modules (URI:Escape, URI:File and URI:URI) was not found in your system

so i done this:
wget http://search.cpan.org/CPAN/authors/...RI-1.40.tar.gz
tar xzf URI-1.40.tar.gz
cd URI-1.35
perl Makefile.PL
make
make test
make install

now
----exo-0.6.0-----------[i done CHAPTER-6.30.libtool-2.2.10 while doing LFS-6.7]

root [ /home/janu/Downloads/xc/src/exo-0.6.0 ]# ./configure --prefix=${PREFIX} && make && make install

Hi,
As stated on the Xfce building page you need to make sure the dependencies mentioned are installed (The Dependencies section, especially the Package specific dependencies part).

Is the part I made red a typo?? If it is: The above looks good.

libtool was indeed installed during the LFS build.

Are there any more message before the blue part in the above output? And did you find anything related in the log config and or make files?

Hope this helps.

hi druuna
that is mistake of pasting. i done exactly URI-1.40.tar.gz only

now check this; exo-0.6.0

Hi,

I never seen this error before so I did a little search and came up with the following:

- exo Release Feed, which mentions fixing a missing linker flag (0.6.1). Maybe this error you are seeing is related to that. You might want to try a newer exo release (try 0.6.2). You can download it here: exo sources

Hope thi helps.

i have tried exo-0.6.1.tar.bz2 also even though exactly error same as above: .http://archive.xfce.org/src/xfce/exo/0.6/

Hi again,

I cannot point you to anything in particular at this moment, but I'm starting to think that something must have gone wrong in one of the earlier stages of the build (not Xfce specific, it might even be LFS/BLFS)

You haven't answered this previous question yet: Just grasping at straws here:
- this seems to be linker specific, try running ldconfig as root,
- check /etc/ld.so.conf to see if the correct paths are present (if you edit this file, run ldconfig afterwards).

Hope this helps.

hi

q: did you find anything related in the log config and or make files?
ans:no [ i have not seen anything related which you specified]

now as root
>root [ ~ ]# ldconfig
ldconfig: /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.6.0.14-gdb.py is not an ELF file - it has the wrong magic bytes at the start.


>root [ ~ ]# cat /etc/ld.so.conf
# Begin /etc/ld.so.conf

/usr/local/lib
/opt/lib

# End /etc/ld.so.conf
# Begin gnome addition to /etc/ld.so.conf

/opt/gnome-2.30.2/lib

# End gnome addition
# Begin qt addition to /etc/ld.so.conf

/opt/qt/lib

# End qt addition
# Begin qt addition to /etc/ld.so.conf

/opt/qt/lib

# End qt addition

Hi,

Your ld.so.conf file seems to be missing a few entries (that does depend on what you did/didn't install).

Try the following as root:Besides the above, this doesn't look correct, but a search tells us that this shouldn't be a problem: Hope this helps.
