I installed a package built from ruby-gnome2-all (version 0.14.1) which include libart and requires libart\_lgpl-devel so the package seems to be built correctly. when i want to run alexandria i obtain this error : /usr/lib/ruby/site\_ruby/1.8/glib2.rb: line 44 GLib-GObject-CRITICAL \*\*:g\_boxed\_type\_register\_static: assertion `g_type_from_name (name) == 0' failed /usr/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/glib2.rb: line 44 GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **:g_param_spec_boxed: assertion `G\_TYPE\_IS\_BOXED (boxed\_type)’ failed /usr/lib/ruby/site\_ruby/1.8/glib2.rb: line 44 GLib-GObject-CRITICAL \*\*:g\_object\_class\_install\_property: assertion `G_IS_PARAM_SPEC (pspec)' failed /usr/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/glib2.rb: line 44 GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **:g_param_spec_boxed: assertion `G\_TYPE\_IS\_BOXED (boxed\_type)’ failed /usr/lib/ruby/site\_ruby/1.8/glib2.rb: line 44 GLib-GObject-CRITICAL \*\*:g\_object\_class\_install\_property: assertion `G_IS_PARAM_SPEC (pspec)' failed /usr/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/gnomecanvas2.rb:2:in `require’: no such file to load – libart2 (LoadError) from /usr/lib/ruby/site\_ruby/1.8/gnomecanvas2.rb:2 from /usr/lib/ruby/site\_ruby/1.8/gnome2.rb:1:in `require' from /usr/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/gnome2.rb:1 from /usr/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/alexandria/ui.rb:20:in `require’ from /usr/lib/ruby/site\_ruby/1.8/alexandria/ui.rb:20 from /usr/lib/ruby/site\_ruby/1.8/alexandria.rb:92:in `require' from /usr/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/alexandria.rb:92 from /usr/bin/alexandria:7:in `require’ from /usr/bin/alexandria:7 So i tried also to build ruby-gnome2-all but version 0.15.0 and i have others errors about gtk : $ alexandria /usr/lib/ruby/site\_ruby/1.8/glib2.rb: line 55 GLib-GObject-CRITICAL \*\*:g\_boxed\_type\_register\_static: assertion `g_type_from_name (name) == 0' failed /usr/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/glib2.rb: line 55 GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **:g_param_spec_boxed: assertion `G\_TYPE\_IS\_BOXED (boxed\_type)’ failed /usr/lib/ruby/site\_ruby/1.8/glib2.rb: line 55 GLib-GObject-CRITICAL \*\*:g\_object\_class\_install\_property: assertion `G_IS_PARAM_SPEC (pspec)' failed /usr/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/glib2.rb: line 55 GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **:g_param_spec_boxed: assertion `G\_TYPE\_IS\_BOXED (boxed\_type)’ failed /usr/lib/ruby/site\_ruby/1.8/glib2.rb: line 55 GLib-GObject-CRITICAL \*\*:g\_object\_class\_install\_property: assertion `G\_IS\_PARAM\_SPEC (pspec)’ failed /usr/bin/ruby: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/ruby/site\_ruby/1.8/i386-linux/gtk2.so: undefined symbol: GLIST2ARYF Is 0.15.0 version too recent for alexandria ?

Hi, Did you try CVS version ? Some GC problems have been fixed. On Thu, 02 Nov 2006 08:46:58 +0100 Tanguy E.

Hi, i’m not very familiar with cvs. Is there somewhere a tar.gz file of the cvs ?

It’s easy to use the CVS client on Unix systems to download the latest Ruby-GNOME2 from the CVS, which generally is in a good state and is easy to compile and install. Here’s the receipt: 1. First, install the CVS client. In Debian (Apt-get) systems, it’s a matter of “apt-get install cvs”. 2. Then you can download the CVS repository by running the following commands in a terminal: 2.1. This one prepares the CVS connection to the server (no password is needed, just press enter): cvs -d:pserver:removed\_email\_address@domain.invalid:/cvsroot/ruby-gnome2 login 2.2. This one downloads the repository: cvs -z3 -d:pserver:removed\_email\_address@domain.invalid:/cvsroot/ruby-gnome2 co -P ruby-gnome2 1. Enter the new Ruby-GNOME2 repository and compile and install it, by using the following commands: cd ruby-gnome2 ruby extconf.rb make make install That’s it. Notice that to compile Ruby-GNOME2 or its GTK+ wrapping modules, you need some development libraries of GNOME2 or GTK+. To install them on Debian based systems, it’s a matter of “apt-get install libgtk2.0-dev gnome-devel”. When you run “ruby extconf.rb”, it will detect the available development libraries and compile the Ruby-GNOME2 modules which can be compiled with those libraries. The process can ignore the Ruby-GNOME2 modules which can’t be compiled due to missing development libraries. As long as you don’t need the ignored libraries, you should be fine. Notice that Ruby-GNOME2 supports dozens of libraries, many of which we rarely use, if at all. 🙂 Notice that much of the process would be the same with the “tar.gz” source package.
