Re: Noob qestion on libglib-2.0-0.dll

Did you download both the "normal" and the "dev" versions of each package.

E.g. for glib, you need something like:

    glib-2.2.0-20030104.zip

AND

    glib-dev-2.2.0-20030104.zip

(The dates are probably different nowadays).

I think the first contains the run-time files you need and the second
contains the compile-time.

Hope that helps,
Richard W.
