Had the same error Message on an SuSE 8.1 System.

rpm -qa | gep gtk would do for a check.

Run
=09thomas@r1:~> rpm -qa | grep gtk2
=09gtk2-engines-1.9.0-193
=09gtk2-2.0.6-51
=09gtk2-devel-2.0.6-71
=09gtk2-themes-0.1-112
=09gtk2-doc-2.0.6-71
=09thomas@r1:~>

You need the gtk2-devel-2.x.x-xx.



You should also check for pango-devel and atk-devel. If they are realy=20
requierd I don't know. I got this info from Miguel who had it from anothe=
r=20
discussion.

Run
=09thomas@r1:~> rpm -qa | grep atk-devel
=09atk-devel-1.0.3-45
=09thomas@r1:~> rpm -qa | grep pango
=09pango-devel-1.0.4-46
=09pango-1.0.4-46
=09thomas@r1:~>

On Suse there is a config problem with pkg-config

Run pkg-config --list-all. If you get no output or you will not find gtk+=
-2.0

Run=20
=09thomas@r1:~> pkg-config --list-all --debug=09
=09Option --debug seen
=09Error printing enabled by default due to use of --version, --libs, --c=
flags,
=09--l                          ibs-only-l, --libs-only-L, --libs-only-ot=
her,
=09--cflags-only-I, --cflags-only-oth                          er or --li=

If you get the above result, you have a problem with pk-config. It is=20
installed in an different lib. My solution was to add a link to the corre=
ct=20
lib.

Run=20
=09thomas@r1:~> su -c "ln -s /usr/lib/pkgconfig /usr/local/lib/pkgconfig"
=09thomas@r1:~>=20

Now run ./configure again and see what happend.

Thanks to Miguel Coca who solved my problem just today.

Hope this helps a bit further.
