  • I was trying to install PSPP v1.4.0 from source.
  • However, it reguires " GtkSourceView version 3.4.0 or later."
  • I installed GtkSourceView v4.0.
  • It cant find it - reports "You must install them before PSPP can be built: gtksourceview 3.0 version 3.4.2 or later (or use --without-gui)"
  • dpkg -s libgtk-3-0|grep '^Version' says Version: 3.22.30-1ubuntu4

What I must do now in order pspp find the gtk 4? I can explicitly declaring at sudo ./configure command somehow?

UPDATE - dont knw if it helps...

I am trying to install gtk+3.4 (what is the difference with gtksource?)

then issuing find /usr/ -iname "*glib*.pc"

it reports that: No glib 3.....

  /usr/local/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/pkgconfig/glib-2.0.pc
    /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/pkgconfig/fso-glib-1.0.pc
    /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/pkgconfig/libpulse-mainloop-glib.pc
    /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/pkgconfig/glib-2.0.pc
    /usr/lib/pkgconfig/glib-sharp-3.0.pc
    /usr/lib/pkgconfig/glib-sharp-2.0.pc

Note that:

elias@eliasc:$ echo $LD_LIBRARY_PATH
/usr/local/lib:/usr/local/lib/:/usr/lib/:/usr/lib64/
elias@eliasc:$ echo $PKG_CONFIG_PATH
/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig

Note that for gtk+-3.4.2:

elias@eliasc:$ sudo ./configure --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc

*** 'pkg-config --modversion glib-2.0' returned 2.64.0, but GLIB (2.56.4)
*** was found! If pkg-config was correct, then it is best
*** to remove the old version of GLib. You may also be able to fix the error
*** by modifying your LD_LIBRARY_PATH enviroment variable, or by editing
*** /etc/ld.so.conf. Make sure you have run ldconfig if that is
*** required on your system.
*** If pkg-config was wrong, set the environment variable PKG_CONFIG_PATH
*** to point to the correct configuration files
no
configure: error: 
*** GLIB 2.32.0 or better is required. The latest version of
*** GLIB is always available from ftp://ftp.gtk.org/pub/gtk/.

Note that it was installed gtksourceview-4.0.0 (for PSPP v1.4) from source successfully and glib-2.64.4 (for gtk+-3.4.2) from source successfully but they do not appear to be "discovered" either by the respecting apps that need them.

Note that...

by choosing from Software & Updates, sources in first tab... and by running "sudo apt-get build-dep pspp " the libgtksourceview-3.0-dev is installed....

then... running sudo ./configure for pspp v1.4. is working. It was installed successfully!

You have to start the compilation process by getting build-dependencies for 18.04 LTS version:

  1. Enable Source Code repositories by visiting Software & Updates (software-properties-gtk)

    Software & Updates → Ubuntu Software

    then confirm lists Reload.

  2. Get build-dependencies with:

    sudo apt-get build-dep pspp

  3. Resume the compilation as you have planned:

    mkdir -p ~/Downloads/pspp
cd ~/Downloads/pspp
wget http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/s/spread-sheet-widget/spread-sheet-widget_0.6.orig.tar.gz
tar -xf spread-sheet-widget_0.6.orig.tar.gz
cd spread-sheet-widget-0.6/
./configure
sudo make install

    cd ~/Downloads/pspp
wget http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/p/pspp/pspp_1.4.0.orig.tar.gz
tar -xf pspp_1.4.0.orig.tar.gz
cd pspp-1.4.0/
./configure
make
sudo make install
