Prerequisites ============= GTK+ requires the following packages: - The GLib, Pango, GdkPixbuf, ATK and cairo libraries, available at the same location as GTK+. GTK+ @GTK_VERSION@ requires at least GLib @GLIB_REQUIRED_VERSION@, Pango @PANGO_REQUIRED_VERSION@, GdkPixbuf @GDK_PIXBUF_REQUIRED_VERSION@, ATK @ATK_REQUIRED_VERSION@ and cairo @CAIRO_REQUIRED_VERSION@. - Each GDK backend has its own backend-specific requirements. For the X11 backend, X11 R6 and XInput version 2 (as well as a number of other extensions) are required. - gobject-introspection @INTROSPECTION_REQUIRED_VERSION@ or newer. Simple install procedure ======================== % gzip -cd gtk+-@GTK_VERSION@.tar.gz | tar xvf - # unpack the sources % cd gtk+-@GTK_VERSION@ # change to the toplevel directory % ./configure # run the `configure' script % make # build GTK+ [ Become root if necessary ] % make install # install GTK+ The Details =========== Complete information about installing GTK+ and related libraries can be found in the file: docs/reference/gtk/html/gtk-building.html Or online at: http://library.gnome.org/devel/gtk/stable/gtk-building.html
