I haven't tried the new gtk+ 2.6 yet, but IIRC gtk+ 2.4 could be installed from tarballs without gtkdoc. On most of the "old" systems on which I install CVS GIMP for testing, I build gtk+ and its dependencies from the released tarballs because I only want to test the GIMP itself and I do not need to have the development version of the various libraries. I only try gtk+ from CVS on my development machine. > > I haven't tried this yet, but it should be possible to modify > > autogen.sh in such a way that [...] > > No, I wouldn't accept such an ugly hack.

I will submit a proposed patch to Bugzilla as soon as I have some time to look at this (probably during this weekend, after X-mas). Then you can review it and tell me if I can commit it. -Raphaël
