In my experience, compiling GTK+ manually is never the best way, unless you are fully versed with proper use of pkg-config, and how to properly set PKG_CONFIG_PATH before compiling GTK+3 apps and then LD_LIBRARY_PATH before running your GTK+3 apps. Note that if you use jhbuild it defaults to putting things in /opt, which will require the use of the variables I mentioned. If you compile by hand to the normal /usr locations, then you can just compile and run as if GTK+3 was shipped with the distro. _______________________________________________ gtk-list mailing list gtk-list@xxxxxxxxx https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-list
