I'm taking this back to the list, since I accidently neglected to include the list in my previous reply...

If you want to find out what version of GTK configure scripts will find (and therefore applications will attempt to build against), do: pkg-config --modversion gtk+-2.0 This will work on all Unix-ish GTK-supported platforms, provided that pkg-config and GTK+ devel files are installed. - Michael -- Michael Ekstrand Research Assistant, Scalable Computing Laboratory Goanna, compute cluster and InfiniBand network monitor tool: http://www.scl.ameslab.gov/Projects/Monitor/ _______________________________________________ gtk-list mailing list gtk-list@xxxxxxxxx http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-list
