[LI] compile error for GO(wordprocessor) and GNUMERIC(spreadsheet)

[Rajesh Fowkar <rfowkar@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi friends,

I tried compiling go (the wordprocessor) and gnumeric(spreadsheet) from PCQ
Dec. CD. But ./configure gives the following error :

[rajesh@rajesh] ~/tmp/go-0.1.35$ ./configure
creating cache ./config.cache
checking for a BSD compatible install... /usr/bin/install -c
checking whether build environment is sane... yes
checking whether make sets ${MAKE}... yes
checking for working aclocal... found
checking for working autoconf... found
checking for working automake... found
checking for working autoheader... found
checking for working makeinfo... missing
checking whether to enable maintainer-specific portions of Makefiles... no
checking for gnome-config... no
checking for gnomeConf.sh file in /usr/local/lib... not found
configure: error: Could not find the gnomeConf.sh file that is generated by gnome-libs install
[rajesh@rajesh] ~/tmp/go-0.1.35$ 

gnome-libs is installed on my PC. I even tried the following

find / -name gnomeConf.sh  -print

But the above file is not yet all present on my machine. What could be the
problem ? 

Just a thought : Why does PC QUEST give sources on their CD's instead of RPM
files ? Will these sources do any good to totally newcomers ? RPM would have
been a better option. Any thoughts!

Thanks in advance.
