The GTK+ package contains GTK+ Libraries. This is useful for creating graphical user interfaces for applications.
GTK+ depends on: GLib-1.2.10, libpng-1.2.5, libtiff-3.5.7, libjpeg-6b and xfree86-4.3.0 |
Install GTK+ by running the following commands:
./configure --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc && make && make install |
--sysconfdir=/etc : This installs the configuration files into /etc instead of /usr/etc.
--with-xinput=xfree : This configuration flag is necessary to utilize alternative input devices.
As with most libraries, there is no configuration to do, save that the library directory i.e. /usr/lib or /usr/local/lib should appear in /etc/ld.so.conf so that ldd can find the shared libraries. After checking that this is the case, /sbin/ldconfig should be run while logged in as root.
The GTK+ package contains libgtk-1.2 libraries.
GTK+ Libraries provide the API to implement graphical user interfaces.
