[Github-comments] [geany/geany] Problems with text "Search for:" field in "Replace" pop up (#1204)

[Peter Williams]

OK, I figured out that I need autoconf etc.  So installed them and ran 
./autogen.sh and started installing the libraries that it complained 
about but ran into a problem with glib.  It kept complaining about 
needing glib even after I installed it so I installed glib-devel as well 
but it still complained.  I did the same with glibc in case it was a 
package name error but still no joy.

So I'm more or less stymied.

PS This experience has reinforced my belief the PyGObject is the best 
way to do GUIs as it hides all these difficult setup issues :-)
