Recent commentsI am using Kubuntu 8.10 4 Remix and I noticed the project has the imlib2-dev dependency. I installed libimlib2-dev and moved on the 'make' command. However, when I run make, I get the following error:
$ make
g++ `imlib2-config --cflags` -Wall -O2 -c -o XWin.o XWin.cc
XWin.cc: In constructor ‘XWin::XWin(int, int, int, int)’:
XWin.cc:33: warning: deprecated conversion from string constant to ‘char*’

g++ `imlib2-config --cflags` -Wall -O2 -c -o Bar.o Bar.cc

IconLoader.cc: In constructor ‘IconLoader::IconLoader(const char*)’:
IconLoader.cc:20: error: ‘getenv’ was not declared in this scope
make: *** [IconLoader.o] Error 1
What do I need to do in order to resolve this problem?
Thanks,
Dave

Lookslike you have too old pygtk installed, try upugrading it and see if that helps. Also the wbarconf is now greatly improved with version 0.6.4.
Separation
Is it possible to add something to separate differents applications ?
