Hi,
I'm an end-user, not a developer. Trying to install Bibledit on something more
current & reliable than Debian or Ubuntu have been lately.
There seems to be no package for Bibledit in most of the Distributions that
have worked well for me (Arch or Suse); so I'm trying to compile it. Other
than having very little idea of what I'm doing, I'm getting the following error
from OpenSuse:
configure: error: libgtkhtml3 development version >= 3.8.0 is needed.
I installed libgtkhtml-dev, but the current versions are well into 4.x, not
3.x. Is that my problem, is the source code calling for an older version? If
so, I suspect this was the same problem I was having with Arch Linux last week.
If version 4.4.x will work, how do we get the compiler to stop insisting on the
older "3" version?
Thanks,
Lance
