Hi,

I am trying to install (only) openbox and obconf.

This page:

http://openbox.org/wiki/Help:Installing

calls startup-notification "optional, but recommended."

This page:

http://openbox.org/wiki/ObConf:About

does not mention startup-notification at all.

Openbox (3.4.11.2) compiled without any problem, but obconf
(2.0.3) seems to want startup-notification really bad.

------------------------------------------------------------

configure:5996: checking for LIBSTARTUPNOTIFICATION
configure:6004: $PKG_CONFIG --exists --print-errors "libstartup-notification-1.0"
Package libstartup-notification-1.0 was not found in the pkg-config search path.
Perhaps you should add the directory containing `libstartup-notification-1.0.pc'
to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable
No package 'libstartup-notification-1.0' found
configure:6007: $? = 1
configure:6022: $PKG_CONFIG --exists --print-errors "libstartup-notification-1.0"
Package libstartup-notification-1.0 was not found in the pkg-config search path.
Perhaps you should add the directory containing `libstartup-notification-1.0.pc'
to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable
No package 'libstartup-notification-1.0' found
configure:6025: $? = 1
No package 'libstartup-notification-1.0' found
configure:6063: error: Package requirements (libstartup-notification-1.0) were not met:

No package 'libstartup-notification-1.0' found

Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you
installed software in a non-standard prefix.

Alternatively, you may set the environment variables LIBSTARTUPNOTIFICATION_CFLAGS
and LIBSTARTUPNOTIFICATION_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config.
See the pkg-config man page for more details.

------------------------------------------------------------

Or more succinctly:

checking for LIBSTARTUPNOTIFICATION... configure: error: Package requirements (libstartup-notification-1.0) were not met:

No package 'libstartup-notification-1.0' found

Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you
installed software in a non-standard prefix.

Alternatively, you may set the environment variables LIBSTARTUPNOTIFICATION_CFLAGS
and LIBSTARTUPNOTIFICATION_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config.
See the pkg-config man page for more details.


So, how do I compile obconf without startup notification (or
is the documentation wrong, and it is really a requirement?)?
