I finally got it to compile thanks to Jason Keltz's (jas (at)
cs.yorku.edu) suggestion. I needed to tell xrender where render
installed its include files (see below). So now pango compiled
everything and gtk compiles.
However, now I need to install some fonts on Solaris - I'll have to
look into this sometime. When running gtk-demo I get:
No fonts found; this probably means that the fontconfig
library is not correctly configured. You may need to
edit the fonts.conf configuration file. More information
about fontconfig can be found in the fontconfig(3) manual
page and on http://fontconfig.org
For anyone else having problem, here is what I had to do:
fontconfig
./configure
make
make install
render
./configure
make
make install
xrender
./configure --x-includes=/usr/local/include/X11
font-config-2.2.2
./configure
make
make install
xft-2.1.2
./configure
make
make install
pango-1.4.0
./configure
make
make install
atk-1.6.0
./configure
make
make install
gtk+-2.4.0
./configure
make
make install
Thanks,
Dave
