Hi,
I've got a relatively new installation of Ubuntu Dapper Drake on my
machine and have installed what I thought was a pretty complete set of
GTK installations, e.g. libgtk2.0-dev, the -engine stuff (a few of
them), the libgnome libs, etc. When I try to compile the program below
(compilation command line shown in the comments), I get a complaint from
gcc that gtk/gtk.h can't be found (plus a bunch of compiler
misunderstandings on unresolved constants and functions etc). When I
modify the program to include the whole path to the gtk.h file,
e.g. /usr/include/gtk-2.0/gtk/gtk.h , then I get about 4000 error
messages ...mostly about syntax errors. Although I used the Synaptic
Package Manager to do the installations, I assume that my GTK+2
installation isn't right. So here are my questions:
- I assume that there should be some environment variables set up so the
compiler/linker can find the includes and libraries? What environment
settings should I be providing?
- Can someone tell me the minimum set of Ubuntu packages that *should*
be installed? Assuming that I left something out?
- Is there some post-install step or steps that I should've accomplished
after the install of the libraries? (I even tried putting a 'gtk'
symbolic link in /usr/include to point to the full directory but
no-worky ...same 4k errors)
I saw some other bloke online with exactly the same problem, to a 'T',
and a bunch of guesses from people on what the solution might be but
none of them answered the question... help! Any Ubuntu fans here?
Thanks,
Brian

#include <gtk/gtk.h>
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
GtkWidget *window;
gtk_init(&argc, &argv);
window = gtk_window_new(GTK_WINDOW_TOPLEVEL);

return 0;
