Could not find xml-config package in Fedora

Question

While executing ./configure of gnorpm, this error message is appear.

configure: error: Could not find xml-config.

I find this document in google.

http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-software-2/xml-config-not-found-777868/

I install gstreamer, libxml2 as that document says.

It also says execute

apt-get install libghttp1 libhttp-ghttp-perl libghttp-dev

But in my fedora, same error message appears.

E: Couldn't find package libghttp1.

and ./configure still occurs error.

What package should I install?

Answer 1

I think your problem is that gnorpm is ancient - indeed it looks like it is practically prehistoric. These days libxml2 seems to use xml2-config rather than xml-config so I suspect that gnorpm wants a really old version of libxml2 that modern systems probably don't have.
