-prefix is wrong, it should be --prefix (even though -prefix works).
But primarily, ./configure failed. Otherwise it would have created the
Makefiles (read some intro to the GNU build system). So what was the
error?
Also the location /opt/gtk is an example in the Gtk+ documentation and
not a good one IMO as only root can install there. Choose a location in
your home directory (e.g. ~/opt/gtk) and do everything as a normal user
at least until you are sure you do it right.
