Installing gtk2.10+?

Post by nobitacu »

I actually thought this would have already been installed by default on linux mint 6, however, when I'm trying to compile and install the new Aurora Gtk engine, the Terminal said....

checking for GTK... no
configure: error: GTK+-2.10 is required to compile aurora

Hmmm.... Could anyone help me as to how I can install the newest GTK2?

Thanks, still trying to figure everything out.

It is installed, but when compiling you need the -dev libraries.

Hmmm, that's what I thought. Now just have to figure out how to install the dev library.

Ah.... Thanks! ^^

I just installed Linux Mint 6 yesterday, and so far, it's been a lot of fun! Hopefully I'll slowly get better and better at it. :D

It still said the same thing... ^^"

But I think I might have figured it out. I found python-gtk2-dev in Synaptic, so I just installed that. We'll see what happens.

Yup, that was what I was missing. It all compiled fine and I got it installed. ^^
