[Geany-Users] Relaxing geany package requirements

[Asif Aaron Amin]

All,

When I try to build the latest geany (version 1.29) from source I get the
following configure error:

checking for GTK... no
configure: error: Package requirements (gtk+-2.0 >= 2.24 glib-2.0 >= 2.32
gio-2.0 >= 2.32 gmodule-no-export-2.0) were not met:

Requested 'glib-2.0 >= 2.32' but version of GLib is 2.28.8
Requested 'gio-2.0 >= 2.32' but version of GIO is 2.28.8

Is it possible to get past these constraints besides installing the latest
glib libraries? I'm currently using version 1.27 and I was able to build
from source flawlessly. I feel bad that I'm not using the bleeding edge
geany version anymore. Geany is my favorite text editor and I like to get
the new goodies from each new release!

Would it be possible to relax these constraints in future possibly?

If it matters my OS is RHEL 6.

Thanks for all your help
