Re: [Ltib] Compiling a development header package

[Stuart Hughes]

Hi Ferdinand,

No, do not try to install binary rpms you download directly.

To answer your question though, if you're building a package that nees
from gstreamer headers, then these should have been installed for you
when you built gstreamer in LTIB.  For example gstreamer-core installs:

rootfs/
//usr/include/gstreamer-0.10
//usr/include/gstreamer-0.10/gst
//usr/include/gstreamer-0.10/gst/base
//usr/include/gstreamer-0.10/gst/base/gstadapter.h
//usr/include/gstreamer-0.10/gst/base/gstbasesink.h
//usr/include/gstreamer-0.10/gst/base/gstbasesrc.h
....


Other packages using these headers would normally get then using pkg-config

Regards, Stuart
