Need assistance installing gpaste in RHEL 8

[mmorgan-tx]

I am unable to get gpaste v3.38.1 installed on RHEL 8. I downloaded the code from Git. Tried to follow the instructions to compile/build, but I've encountered one dependency issue after another. I am NOT a programmer, so this is all greek to me! I managed to google and find fixes for several issues, but haven't been able to find a way around this one from running ./configure: [snip] checking where the gettext function comes from... libc checking for pkg-config... /usr/bin/pkg-config checking pkg-config is at least version 0.29... yes checking for GLIB... no configure: error: Package requirements (glib-2.0 >= 2.64.0 gobject-2.0 >= 2.64.0 gio-2.0 >= 2.64.0) were not met:

Package dependency requirement 'glib-2.0 >= 2.64.0' could not be satisfied. Package 'glib-2.0' has version '2.56.4', required version is '>= 2.64.0' Package dependency requirement 'gobject-2.0 >= 2.64.0' could not be satisfied. Package 'gobject-2.0' has version '2.56.4', required version is '>= 2.64.0' Package dependency requirement 'gio-2.0 >= 2.64.0' could not be satisfied. Package 'gio-2.0' has version '2.56.4', required version is '>= 2.64.0'

Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you installed software in a non-standard prefix.

Alternatively, you may set the environment variables GLIB_CFLAGS and GLIB_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config. See the pkg-config man page for more details.

Hi,

Isn't there an official package available for rhel? Which version of gnome are you running?

[mmorgan-tx]

Keruspe, I was not able to locate one specific to RHEL. I think I saw one for Ubuntu. The links that I found all pointed to the source in github. It appears that I am at 3.28.3. Thank you for your response.

You should use the tarball linked at https://www.imagination-land.org/posts/2018-11-14-gpaste-3.28.3-released.html

You will need several -devel packages, not sure what the names are for rhel, but you can probably take inspiration from fedora's spec file

[mmorgan-tx]

This is exactly what I was attempting to do per the README.md page:

Steps to install it after cloning (skip the ./autogen.sh part if you're building it from a tarball):

./autogen.sh
./configure --sysconfdir=/etc
make
sudo make install
sudo glib-compile-schemas /usr/share/glib-2.0/schemas/

try these:

sudo dnf remove gpaste*

sudo dnf install gpaste*

sudo dnf install gnome-shell-extension*

reboot

[mmorgan-tx]

Thank you for your response. Will the shell extensions work without the gpaste packages? Because those did not install.

@mmorgan-tx Since you wanna install gpaste, gpaste pkgs are the primary ones. You can run rpm -aq | grep gpaste to check if you have installed these 5 pkgs:

gpaste-libs-3.38.3-1.fc33.x86_64
gpaste-3.38.3-1.fc33.x86_64
gpaste-ui-3.38.3-1.fc33.x86_64
gpaste-devel-3.38.3-1.fc33.x86_64
gnome-shell-extension-gpaste-3.38.3-1.fc33.noarch

In Fedora/RHEL, these are all gpaste need, I think. If you can't install them by sudo dnf install gpaste* or sudo dnf install {PKG_NAME} then try sudo yum install {PKG_NAME}. If fail, you can try to download these 5 xxx.rpm pkgs(of course you can choose other editions, doesn't have to be V3.38.3-1) in https://pkgs.org/search/?q=gpaste or http://rpmfind.net/linux/RPM/index.html or some other rpm-pkg download websites(since the "r" in "rpm" stands for "RedHat", as far as I know, if there is no column as RHEL, try find them in Fedora column -- these two are both developed by RedHat so they should share the same rpms as possible as they can). Then you can install them by simply double-clicking them or using some rpm commands like rpm –ivh {PKG_NAME}. Wish you success!

I seem to just be going round and round, here! I've managed to get a couple packages installed, but from there, the compounded requisite difficulties seem to escalate.

If gnome 3.32 is shipped, you should use GPaste 3.32 and not 3.38
