Re: Compiling twin (glib header)

First check you're downloading the right file because the default download file at the project page is an xmms plugin. You have to download the file twin-0.6.1.tar.gz at this page http://sourceforge.net/projects/twin/files/twin/0.6.1/

Check you have the package 'build-essential' installed.

Have at hand your package manager to search for missing packages. I use synaptic for that. In the error you're getting, look for 'glib' or 'libglib', and install the packages related, especially the ones ending in '-dev'. In the example it would be 'libglib2.0-dev'. Those are the header files.

I also had to edit some config files that were giving errors. Check this page: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1393776

This wasn't the easiest compilation i have made, but follow these steps and have some patience smile
