Thanks I really appreciate your help, > Amish > Slackware distribution doesn't make difference between -devel packages and regular ones. My Slackware reply to pkg-config command with a "2.4.13", so, problably, your package is not correctly installed. Try to reinstall it (upgradepkg --reinstall), or upgrade to a newer version (pay attention to updated dependences too). PS: to see which packages are installed on your Slackware look in /var/log/packages -- Luca _______________________________________________ gtk-list@xxxxxxxxx http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-list
