error: gnome.h: No such file or directory

Question

I would like to resolve this 'error: gnome.h: No such file or directory ' on ubuntu.

I get this error:

/bin/sh: gnome-config: not found
In file included from TestMDI.cpp:18:
../../../../dist/include/system_wrappers/gnome.h:3:24: error: gnome.h: No such file or directory

From this: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=295105

I tried: $ sudo apt-get install libgnomeui-dev
Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done libgnomeui-dev is already the newest version. 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 21 not upgraded.

But that still does not resolve my problem.

Any idea how to fix it?

Answer 1

If the program is for Gnome 1.x, you can't compile it on recent Ubuntu without code changes.
