(Sigh, one of these days we should add a dependency check for this in configure.in...)

Do you mean libgtk2-dev ? this is already installed

after symlinking /usr/include/gtk-2.0/gtk to /usr/local/include/gtk it finally worked :)

I have a similar problem building on Ubuntu Feisty (VMWare'd)

after running ./configure i get:


--- Code: ---checking for GTK2... configure: error: Package requirements (gtk+-2.0 >= 2.0.0) were not met:

No package 'gtk+-2.0' found

--- End code ---

is it even possible that gtk 2.0 isn't installed on a vanilla ubuntu? does anyone know what I'm missing?

to pre-empt the next set of problems, to build C::B with the full set of plugins what make incantations do I need to specify?

I'm not sure. But it may come only with the runtime packages. You should install libgtk+-2.0-devel package (the name may be bit different) to compile C::B.

Configure C::B as -

--- Code: ---./configure --with-contrib-plugins=all
--- End code ---

thanks biplab (for reference the name was libgtk2.0-dev)

I also grabbed automake, autoconf, libtools, and the usual wx libs -- I really have no idea how many of these were essential... The wiki is very out of date on compiling from source on linux
