[Mono-list] Compile Mono from Source

[gep13]

Hey lekamn,

I have tried following the steps in the link that you provided, and this is
what I am using:

wget ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/bison/bison-2.3.tar.gz
tar -xzvf bison-2.3.tar.gz
cd bison-2.3
./configure
make
make install (must be root for that)

wget ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/gettext/gettext-0.17.tar.gz
tar -xzvf gettext-0.17.tar.gz
cd gettext-0.17
./configure
make
make install (must be root for that)

wget http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/gnome/sources/glib/2.18/glib-2.18.1.tar.gz
tar -xzvf glib-2.18.1.tar.gz
cd glib-2.18.1
./configure

********
configure: error: *** pkg-config too old; version 0.16 or better required.
********

wget http://pkgconfig.freedesktop.org/releases/pkg-config-0.23.tar.gz
tar -xzvf pkg-config-0.23.tar.gz
cd pkg-config-0.23
./configure
make
make install (must be root for that)

cd ..
cd glib-2.18.1
./configure
make
make install

wget
http://ftp.novell.com/pub/mono/sources/libgdiplus/libgdiplus-2.0.tar.bz2
tar xvfj libgdiplus-2.0.tar.bz2
cd libgdiplus-2.0
./configure

********
configure: error: *** libpng12 not found. See
http://www.libpng.org/pub/png/libpng.html.
********

wget
http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/libpng/libpng-1.2.32.tar.bz2?download
tar xvfj libpng-1.2.32.tar.bz2
cd libpng-1.2.32
./configure
make
make install (must be root for that)

cd ..
cd libgdiplus-2.0
./configure

********
configure: error: "Failed to compile with X11/Xlib.h include.  You must fix
your compiler paths"
********

Have you got any thoughts on what is going wrong with the above?

Thanks

Gary
