First of all, could you tell us a little more about your situation? Who makes your Linux distribution (RedHat, Mandrake, Slackware....)? And are you installing GTK+ fresh, or are you upgrading an existing installation?
But generally, you run the configure script after downloading and unpacking a package that you want to install. "configure" is the name of an actual script file that comes with that package. So if you downloaded the package gtk+-1.2.10-i386-1.tgz into your /tmp directory, then you might do this:
sh$ cd /tmp sh$ tar zxvf gtk+-1.2.10-i386-1.tgz
That will create the directory /tmp/gtk+-1.2.10-i386-1. So then you would:
sh$ cd gtk+-1.2.10-i386-1 sh$ ./configure
That would run the configure script, which (if all goes well) will create makefiles in lots of places under /tmp/gtk+-1.2.10-i386-1. Then you build the package by typing:
sh$ make
And, if all of THAT goes well, you'd install the package like this:
sh$ su (enter your root password) sh# make install
When that finishes, your new copy of gtk+ should be installed. I think for version 1.2.10, the default location is /usr, and it puts files in a few different subdirectories of that. And once it's installed, you can:
sh$ rm -rf /tmp/gtk+-1.2.10-i386-1
...which will delete that directory. Unless you know of some reason to keep it around (I never do), you'll get some disk space back by rm-ing it.
And finally:
> the directory usr/doc/gtk+- 1.2.10/ > doesn't exist.
I believe that when you're done, the directory would be /usr/doc/gtk+-1.2.10/ (no space after the dash).
Hope this helps, Anthony http://nodivisions.com/

Hi:
I am having a hard time installing the GTK+ library. Here is the related Log File. I wish to know which directory I need to go to use ./configure
Also all the documents are not available in /usr/doc and the directory usr/doc/gtk+- 1.2.10/ doesn't exist. Please assist.
Thanks.
