um i need this to compile some code

I am trying to build the java gnome gtk+ bindings on open suse and ran into a snag. the libcairo2-dev package is not apart of pensuse - how ever it is apart of ubuntu and the debian launchpad. can i install other distros repos to solve this issue? actually no i cant…****…um can some one tell me how to install this package?

zypper install libcairo2-dev comes back as not found.

Maybe you are looking for this python-gobject-cairo-2.26.0-4.1.x86_64.rpm - openSUSE Factory - Download

or for this libmono-cairo2.0-cil Downloads - Linux Packages Search

um no What I need is the libcairo2-dev package. no other variation will work. Why doesnt open suse have this package? the links you gave me are to debian based packages and you cant install .deb files on opensuse

i should be able to build and compile this on opensuse but it seems they dont support these files. any suggestions?

there is a libcairo2 installed on gnome but there is no libcairo2-dev

Suggestions?

this is really sad. I had to compile the .jar file on my ubuntu virtual box and then bring that over. Thats really pathetic.

Of course this is a debian package name, the name of that package in
openSUSE is simply libcairo-devel

Sorry typo:
cairo-devel not libcairo-devel

This is obviously a error in the configure script.
I guess the programmer who made it does not know how the package is called
in opensuse and put FIXME into it.

You will need gtksourceview-devel (I would say).
If there is more like this just put the name in lowercase and add -devel to
it (this is in most cases correct).
