Re: gtk and gnome-libs autogen error

[Brian M Dial <bdial rkkengineers com>]

You probably have 2 versions of gtk installed.  One is probably in /usr/X11R6
(from the slackware install) and hte other in /usr/local.  

There's 2 ways you can do this. 

1.  when configuring gnome-libs do ./autogen.sh --with-gtk-prefix=/usr/local
--with-gtk-exec-prefix=/usr/local (or wherever the newer librarirees are) 

2.  Delete the old gtk and glib versions.  I did this because no matter what it
always caused problems having glib/gtk 1.0.6 and 1.1.x on my system, and since
i was using gimp 1.1 i had no need for glib/gtk 1.0.6
