[maker-devel] Problem installing exonerate during Maker setup

[Felipe Barreto]

OK, before anyone spends too much of their time trying to help me...

I think I was able to solve my issue above.  What I did was to install an
additional glib2-related package using fink install.  I installed
glibmm2.4-dev, which also installs glibmm2.4-shlib.  These make up a  C++
interface for the glib2 library, according to their description.

Once I installed those packages, I re-ran ./Build exonerate and it seemed
to work.  I tried a exonerate command in Terminal and it recognized it OK.

Hopefully what I did won't cause any issues down the line.

Thanks.
