Installed But Nothing There ?

I just then entered a repository through Yast in Suse 10.3 for the emulation program WINE and after successfully adding it and then going into Software Management and installing it which it also said was Successful, i am finding that i cannot find it anywhere!?!?. This has happened to me before but i never bothered to ask the question after i could never find the answer, but it "should" show up as a new application, and it should at least have an Icon to represent it shouldn't it ?. I did a search through Control Center to see if it was there but nothing...

So why does this happen and how do i fix it!?!?

Also with GCC & GCC+, what software repositories generally speaking have these?.. i have seen GCC C++ in Software Management which seems to be in there as standard, but not the others ??

Its cool, i have figured out the Wine issue and why this happens, now its just the GCC thing i need to find out.

Any takers ???

They are the same iirc, I thought you had other gcc types to you just want gcc-c++.

Thanks for the help Mr Monkey i got GCC installed and all is well except for one thing.

Now that i am past that problem i have tried to install X-Chat only to find that its giving me this message-:

checking for GLIB - version >= 2.0.3... no
*** Could not run GLIB test program, checking why...
*** The test program failed to compile or link. See the file config.log for the
*** exact error that occured. This usually means GLIB is incorrectly installed.
configure: error: "Cannot find glib"


Now i am assuming that its asking for a later version of Glib due to the fact my current version is 1.2.10, so i downloaded version 2.16.3 as in a Tar archive and installed it via the Console. So then i tried to install X-Chat again but it still gave me the same message.

Is that because i didn't uninstall the current old version that is being displayed through YAST ?? I did try to uninstall it but it gives me a very concerning message and i am too worried to act upon it due to what it might do to the system.

I have taken a Screenshot of it so you can see for yourself. Any answer to problems i get in Linux i document so you can rest assured that i won't ask the same question twice



So what do i do ???

Mmm not sure here thought glib might be something you shouldn't be playing with...

Well here's the easy way. http://packages.opensuse-community.org/ind...earchTerm=xchat
