This section contains additional GNOME 1.4 libraries, needed by some applications that have not yet been ported to GNOME 2.x. None of these libraries are needed for a GNOME desktop install.
Add to your system or personal profile:
export PATH=$PATH:/opt/gnome/bin
export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=$PKG_CONFIG_PATH:/opt/gnome/lib/pkgconfig
export GNOME_LIBCONFIG_PATH=/usr/lib
Add to your /etc/ld.so.conf:
cat >> /etc/ld.so.conf << "EOF" # Begin gnome addition to /etc/ld.so.conf /opt/gnome/lib # End gnome addition EOF
Remember to execute ldconfig after installation of libraries to update the library cache.
Add to your /etc/man.conf:
cat >> /etc/man.conf << "EOF" # Begin gnome addition to man.conf MANPATH /opt/gnome/man # END gnome addition to man.conf EOF
