alk / gpicker Goto Github PK

I'm trying to get gpicker installed on osx.

I already installed gtk+ using homebrew which just made it very easy, unfortunately jhbuild seems to conflict with homebrew, although I'm not entirely sure about this.

Anyway, I've downloaded this repo, and I notice there is no ./configure but a configure.ac.in, I guess I'd have to use autoconf on this file first, am I right?

anyway I did this:

autoconf configure.ac.in

but I'm getting this error:

configure.ac.in:3: error: possibly undefined macro: AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE
If this token and others are legitimate, please use m4_pattern_allow.
See the Autoconf documentation.
configure.ac.in:16: error: possibly undefined macro: AM_CONDITIONAL

Do you have any clues what could this mean, I guess it's some of the macros are not available for autconf but I'm very new with all this.

Any help would be truly appreciated.

Greetings

1. Is there a way to decouple the frontend from the backend sorting/searching?

I'd like to (at least entertain) writing a native frontend client in obj-c for this instead of using the gtk+ dependency (as well as have to deal with the nonnative look).

A few pointers or a step in the right direction would be helpful!

2. Looks like gpicker closes right after its search and has to start back up on the next search. It'd be better if it stayed long running so that searching for files continues to be quick.

Right now, it looks like the increased speed from finding the file with no lag is offset by waiting for the program to start and stop.

Enter directory with .git subdirectory

# updatedb --add-prunenames ".git" --debug-pruning -o mlocate.db -U . 2>&1 | grep "in prunenames"
Skipping `/root/code/ruby/keen/.git': in prunenames
# gpicker -t mlocate mlocate.db

then gpicker will show you pruned records

I've problem with installation on standard Kubuntu installation (12.10) with KDE 4.9

after

$ ./bootstrap
$ ./configure

I've get error like below (it would be great if there was some list of dependencies in documentation)

checking for stdlib.h... yes
checking for string.h... yes
checking for memory.h... yes
checking for strings.h... yes

Did you have any tips for install gicker on KDE

I followed the instructions given for Mac OS X Leopard.
First installed jhbuild,
then gtk+,
finally tried to build gpicker-2.1.1
by
./configure
make

Got the following error:
"

Please help!

Hi alk,

I'm wondering how hard would it be to add support for those two keybindings. I'm willing to create PR, but some guidance would be cool. I'm so used to using it in MacVim's command-t to move up and down the list, that I really miss them when using gpicker.

Cheers,

Marcelo.

Hi,

I have problem with launching gpicker-isearch and gpicker-imenu

option parsing failed: Nieznana opcja -l

(unknown option)

I installed gpicker from deb packages on Ubuntu 11.10. (current 2.1.1 version)

PS: GTK integration works great, i'm looking for it several years :),
