Compiling on CentOS 5

If you tried compiling the latest version of streamripper (1.64.6), you'll probably see the following error:

$ ./configure
< Snip > 
*** Could not run GLIB test program, checking why...
*** The test program failed to compile or link. See the file config.log for the
*** exact error that occured. This usually means GLIB is incorrectly installed.
configure: error: Glib 2.16 or greater required

If so, try using an older version such as 1.62.0:

$ cd streamripper-1.62.0
$ ./configure
$ make
< Snip >
Making all in po

rm -f fi.gmo && : -c --statistics -o fi.gmo fi.po

Try to configure with the ' --disable-adplug' flag.

$ ./configure --disable-adplug
$ make
$ make install
