Ok. Got it from the ftp.

WARNING: unable to use PDL (the perl data language). This means that
normal pixel access is non-functional. Unless you plan to use
Tile/PixelRgn functions together with PDL, this is harmless. The
plug-ins using PDL, however, will NOT WORK and you can NO LONGER
install PDL later. You can get PDL from any CPAN mirror.
checking for PDL support... no
NOTICE: unable to use the Perl-Gtk2 interface. Many features (like
Gimp::Fu) rely on this extension. You can build without it (and
many scripts will be disabled or run with reduced functionality
only), but it's better to install it. If you do install it,
version 1.0 or higher is required; you can get it from
http://gtk2-perl.sourceforge.net/ or any CPAN mirror.
writing Gimp/Config.pm... ok
Checking if your kit is complete...
Looks good
Warning: prerequisite Gtk2 1 not found.

What puzzles me is:
"WARNING: unable to use PDL (the perl data language) ... You can get PDL from
any CPAN mirror."
and
"use'ing Gimp::PDL is no longer necessary, please remove it!"
That is a very odd conflict of directives!
I am getting a wee bit fed up with trying to compile all this.
The prospect of getting into PS just to get the things i want to use seems
closer and closer.
Gimp seems to be a VERY difficult piece of software to get going from scratch
if you are a dabbling neewbie in compiling/programming
Far to many depends that arent clearly stated.
I need gazillion libs installed and zonks of perl utils to even THINK of
starting a compilation.
And frankly.. It suck!
