built on Ubuntu I got similar errors so i tried to install these packages and 
eventually screwed up with my installation because I had to remove the previous 
versions which had lots of dependencies and hence eventually ruining a lot of 
stuff of my pc. Its always best to install onto a system which fully 
supports.Which Ubuntu Version are you using.. ? And if not 10.10 why dont you 
think of Updating it. ?I used to just go in the source and do autogen/configure 
- make - sudo make install and then ran the GtkLauncher. Have you tried this 
approach earlier ? -- Mr. Nimish Nayak

Hi,

I installed GLib-2.27.90.

then tried:

/Tools/Scripts/build-webkit --gtk

I got this:

checking for LIBSOUP... configure: error: Package requirements (libsoup-2.4 >= 
2.33.4) were not met:

Requested 'libsoup-2.4 >= 2.33.4' but version of libsoup is 2.4.0

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

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

Failed to setup build environment using 'autotools'!

I tried installing libsoup but when i gave :

 ./configure for libsoup2.33.4

I got this:

checking for GNOME_KEYRING... no
configure: error: Could not find gnome-keyring devel files.
Configure with --without-gnome if you wish to build only libsoup
without GNOME-specific features.

then i installed GNOME_KEYRING from synaptic package manager.

I got this:

checking for GNOME_KEYRING... yes
checking for LIBPROXY... no
configure: error: Could not find libproxy:

No package 'libproxy-1.0' found

This is required for GNOME proxy support.

Pass "--without-gnome" to configure if you want to build libsoup
without GNOME support.

Installed libproxy-1.0 from synaptic package manager and then did:

./configure for libsoup2.33.4

Got this:

checking for GCONF... no
configure: error: Could not find GConf:

No package 'gconf-2.0' found

This is required for GNOME proxy support.

Pass "--without-gnome" to configure if you want to build libsoup
without GNOME support.

Installed GConf-2.1.90 and when i did ./configure.

Got this:


checking for gmodule-2.0 >= 2.0.1 gobject-2.0 >= 2.0.1 ORBit-2.0 >= 2.4.0 linc 
>= 0.5.0... Package ORBit-2.0 was not found in the pkg-config search path. 
Perhaps you should add the directory containing `ORBit-2.0.pc' to the 
PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable No package 'ORBit-2.0' found Package linc 
was not found in the pkg-config search path. Perhaps you should add the 
directory containing `linc.pc' to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable No 
package 'linc' found
configure: error: Library requirements (gmodule-2.0 >= 2.0.1 gobject-2.0 >= 
2.0.1 ORBit-2.0 >= 2.4.0 linc >= 0.5.0) not met; consider adjusting the 
PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if your libraries are in a nonstandard 
prefix so pkg-config can find them.


WHAT DO I DO NOW? Is there any one solution for this!!

Thanks in advance.
