Over the past couple of weeks I had attempted to build gnome-commander
1.6.2 on CentOS 7. I tripped over an error regarding libunique which
Uwe fixed in 1.6.3. I was able to build and install the latter version
but it would not run. I took a few days off to finish configuring my new
Dell Precision 3620 workstation. It works great except that the Intel
built in graphics are conflicting with my Nvidia Quadro K620 card. Not
serious but a bit annoying. I am back to working on gnome-commander.
I have managed to successfully build 1.6.3 from the source code, install
it on CentOS 7.3 and it runs!!! I realize that an RPM package exists in
the nux-dextop repo (1.6.2) for CentOS 7 but I thought I might pass
along my experience in case anyone is interested. Next I need to try
and build and RPM. I did that once many years ago, I have no idea how
:-) I offer the following for what it might or might not be worth.

----------------------------------------------
The instructions for CentOS are gone from the Download page - replaced
my the notice that the gnome-commander packages is available in the
nux-dextop repo. Still, I believe I can remember enough from my prior
attempts to get through the process.
To start with I built a new development virtual machine as follows:
CentOS7 from everything DVD - Selected: Development and Creative
Workstation and added the following extra items:
+ Additional Development
+ Compatibility Libraries
+ Development Tools
+ Platform Development
I enabled the CentOS CR (continuous release) repo and updated. On this
new, up to date machine I then:
Download source code gnome-commander-1.6.3.tar.xz
Unpacked the file
In the resulting directory issue the command ./configure I then started
to fill in the missing pieces using yum search to locate the desired
packages. N.B. If a -devel package is available - INSTALL IT (as I
learned later).
configure: error: gnome-doc-utils >= 0.3.2 not found
Installing:
gnome-doc-utils noarch 0.20.10-5.el7 base 288 k
Installing for dependencies:
gnome-doc-utils-stylesheets noarch 0.20.10-5.el7 base 152 k
checking if libgnome >= 2.0.0 exists... configure: error: no
Installing:
libgnome x86_64 2.32.1-9.el7 base 741 k
Installing for dependencies:
ORBit2 x86_64 2.14.19-13.el7 base 176 k
gnome-vfs2 x86_64 2.24.4-14.el7 base 839 k
libIDL x86_64 0.8.14-8.el7 base 87 k
libbonobo x86_64 2.32.1-7.el7 base 437 k
I am stuck at this point. I believe I have libgnome 2.32.1 installed
and by my math 2.32.1 IS >= 2.0.0. I then decided to install the
libgnome-devel package
Installing:
libgnome-devel x86_64 2.32.1-9.el7 base 80 k
Installing for dependencies:
GConf2-devel x86_64 3.2.6-8.el7 base 110 k
ORBit2-devel x86_64 2.14.19-13.el7 base 174 k
gnome-vfs2-devel x86_64 2.24.4-14.el7 base 214 k
libIDL-devel x86_64 0.8.14-8.el7 base 20 k
libbonobo-devel x86_64 2.32.1-7.el7 base 454 k
That did the trick
checking if libgnomeui >= 2.4.0 exists... configure: error: no
This time I decided to install the -devel package first (which also
installed the non-devel package)
Installing:
libgnomeui-devel x86_64 2.24.5-8.el7 base 260 k
Installing for dependencies:
docbook-style-dsssl noarch 1.79-18.el7 base 251 k
docbook-utils noarch 0.6.14-36.el7 base 71 k
gtk-doc noarch 1.19-3.el7 base 264 k
libart_lgpl x86_64 2.3.21-10.el7 base 67 k
libart_lgpl-devel x86_64 2.3.21-10.el7 base 24 k
libbonoboui x86_64 2.24.5-7.el7 base 342 k
libbonoboui-devel x86_64 2.24.5-7.el7 base 196 k
libglade2-devel x86_64 2.6.4-11.el7 base 52 k
libgnomecanvas x86_64 2.30.3-8.el7 base 226 k
libgnomecanvas-devel x86_64 2.30.3-8.el7 base 71 k
libgnomeui x86_64 2.24.5-8.el7 base 789 k
lynx x86_64 2.8.8-0.3.dev15.el7 base 1.4 M
openjade x86_64 1.3.2-45.el7 base 831 k
opensp x86_64 1.5.2-19.el7 base 874 k
perl-SGMLSpm noarch 1.03ii-31.el7 base 27 k
source-highlight x86_64 3.1.6-6.el7 base 611 k
That completes the missing pieces and parts. Then I issued the command:
make
That seems to have completed without error. I then issued the command:
make install
That barfed as I was not root :-(
sudo make install
Again, it appears to have completed OK.
I clicked on the gnome-commander icon on the menu under Applications;
Accessories and low and behold GNOME COMMANDER RUNS!!!!!
