"Glib.h: No such file or directory" error despite installing libglib2.0-dev
I'm trying to make GROMACS the error I'm getting is :
fatal error: glib.h: No such file or directory
I've seen that there are already questions related to this, and I followed their advice and ran the following:
sudo apt-get install libglib2.0-dev
I got
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
libglib2.0-dev is already the newest version.
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 270 not upgraded.
After this, when I re-run make,why do I it still get the same error?
I had a similar problem. You could try running locate glib.h
. On my system the locate returns:
/home/jere/src/last.fm-1.4.2.58240/src/transcode/mpgli/mpglib/mpglib.h
/usr/include/dbus-1.0/dbus/dbus-glib.h
/usr/include/glib-2.0/glib.h
/usr/include/libdbusmenu-glib-0.4/libdbusmenu-glib/dbusmenu-glib.h
/usr/src/linux-headers-3.2.0-29-generic/include/config/blk/dev/bsglib.h
and I ended up adding the -I/usr/include/glib-2.0
to the include path of the compiler (in the Makefile).
I guess this is because not all linux distributions install the glib development files to the same folder.
