Slight problem with installing GNOME Commander

[mizzy]

I've downloaded gnome-commander-1.1.7.tar.gz from [/url][url=http://www.nongnu.org/gcmd/]http://www.nongnu.org/gcmd/ which is a file manager program.

 

To install I have done;

 

Downloaded to desktop then cut & past it to my home folder (I didn't know where else to install it :/ )

 

Then I did;

• cd /home/mizzy
  
  
• tar -xvzf gnome-commander-1.1.7.tar.gz
  
  
• cd gnome-commander-1.1.7
  
  
• ./configure && make && checkinstall
  
  

After the last step, I get this error message in terminal:

 

Code:

checking for a BSD-compatible install... /usr/bin/install -c
checking whether build environment is sane... yes
checking for gawk... gawk
checking whether make sets $(MAKE)... yes
checking for gcc... no
checking for cc... no
checking for cc... no
checking for cl... no
configure: error: no acceptable C compiler found in $PATH
See `config.log' for more details.

 

..any idea's why? I did look in config.log but couldn't really make head nor tail of it. Below is what config.log says...

 

Code:

easy enough to fix, you have no compiler !

 

log in as root and do this

 

Code:

yum install gcc*

 

then try again

 

cheers

Thanks for that anyweb. Still one other issue. After doing ./configure the following error comes up:

 

Code:

...................checking for xgettext... /usr/bin/xgettext
checking for catalogs to be installed...  ca cs de el en_CA en_GB es eu fr ga hr hu nb ne nl no pa pl pt pt_BR ru rw sk sq sr sr@Latn sv uk zh_CN zh_TW
checking if glib >= 2.0.0 exists... ./configure: line 21831: pkg-config: command not found
configure: error: no

 

Any idea's of what that is? Also once you have installed a program, where does it appear? How do you confirm that it has been installed etc?

 

Thanks :):)

First .. did you check to see if a RPM was kicking around .... anyway :)

 

Code:

yum install glib-devel

 

When you are installing from source you need extra files (headers and static libraries) the devel packages contain these.

 

So if it says .. X test fails ... try installing x-devel.

 

If it installs correctly it will be put in /usr/local/bin/ by default. It will probably be the only thing in there :P

That wouldn't install in root for some reason, so I went to find the RPM for this (didn't think to do that first) and I tried to install it via terminal following the rpm command (cd'ed to location then rpm -ivh file.rpm and that didn't work :S ) so then I just double clicked it, entered roots password and it worked! Didn't think that RPM's worked that way, it then just showed up under accessorys.

 

Thanks for your help! I am trying to rtfm as much as I can before posting, but some things I just can't find :)

 

Cheers for your help!

Right, finally run the advanced re-naming tool in Gnome Commander but it don't do what I want it to do. I was hoping that this would rename a load of files from 0001, 0002, 003 to date_event_001, date_event_002, date_event_001 etc

 

Still pretty useful tho. I'm off to google to search for another :) but if anybody knows of an application that would do this, would appreciate to know what it is! Cheers :)

You can do this with shell .. it should be that hard..

 

First little bit of preparation:

Code:

mkdir ~/bin

 

Then make a file call it ~/bin/de-renamer .. or anything :P Inside put:

 

Code:

#!/bin/sh

if [ $# -ne 1 ]
then
echo "$0 event"
exit
fi

date=`date +%Y%m%d`  #20060506
event=$1

for p in `ls [0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9]`
do
mv -i $p ${date}_${event}_$p
done

 

So .. to use it you would move into the directory that contains the files .. and

Code:

de-renamer funkyevent

 

It would then move files from:

0001 -> 20060506_funkyevent_0001

0002 -> 20060506_funkyevent_0002

2341 -> 20060506_funkyevent_2341

0101 -> 20060506_funkyevent_0101

 

Etc .. is that what you needed?

[mizzy]

Etc .. is that what you needed?

 

 

Yes it is!!!! Gee thank you!!! Now just give me a few hours to work out how to do that :):):):)

[mizzy]

Right this is what I've done, can you tell me where I've gone wrong? Everytime I try it I just get permission denied :(

 

Terminal > mkdir ~/bin

 

Opened up Text Editor and copied & pasted the code above exactly > saved that as > ~/bin/de-renamer

 

Then I have opened up terminal again and cd'ed to my image folder and typed : de-renamer funkyevent and all I get back is: permission denied.

 

I have tried copying my images to the bin directory too to and run this script again in terminal, but the I got persmission denied back again :(

 

Where have I gone wrong? :)

Go to ~/bin in your terminal and run

 

Code:

chmod a+x ./de-renamer

 

and try again.
