Thread: Can't Build Pango: Grep Error

i'm trying build pango mingw, isn't directly related ubuntu, unix-like environment. libtool appears passing bad argument grep, i've looked through libtool , makefiles , can't figure out problem is. here output:

code:

make[4]: entering directory `/mingw/compiling/pango-1.29.5/build-win32/pango'   ccld   libpangocairo-1.0.la /bin/grep: invalid option -- p usage: /bin/grep [option]... pattern [file]... try `/bin/grep --help' more information.

the offending line appears somewhere around here in makefile of pango subdirectory
(<top-build-dir>/pango/makefile):

code:

libpangocairo-1.0.la: $(libpangocairo_1_0_la_objects) $(libpangocairo_1_0_la_dependencies)  	$(libpangocairo_1_0_la_link) $(am_libpangocairo_1_0_la_rpath) $(libpangocairo_1_0_la_objects) $(libpangocairo_1_0_la_libadd) $(libs)

...but can't figure out how fix it. i've searched on internet haven't been able find invalid "p" option grep.

code:

decided see if reproduce error on ubuntu, can't recognize glib installed:

code:

... checking cairo... yes checking cairo font backends used... freetype  checking glib... no configure: error:  *** glib 2.31.0 or better required. latest version of *** glib available ftp://ftp.gtk.org/.

code:

$ sudo apt-get install libglib2.0-dev reading package lists... done building dependency tree        reading state information... done libglib2.0-dev newest version.

----- edit -----

oh, see problem here:

code:

$ apt-cache show libglib2.0-dev ... ... version: 2.28.6-0ubuntu1 ...

guess, i'll either need upgrade glib or try older version of pango.

v1.28.4 compiled fine on ubuntu tried mingw, still complaining invalid option "p" when trying create libpangocairo-1.0.la, *sigh*.
