Thanks Matthias and Mike for your quick replies.

I have now compiled glib-2.24.0 and gtk+-2.18.0 as mentioned in the README.

I have taken the code from the git repository. It has compiled but everytime I try to run

it, I get the following error

./gthumb/gthumb 

** (gthumb:30775): CRITICAL **: gth_extension_manager_open: assertion `description != NULL' failed

Segmentation fault

gdb shows the following 

** (gthumb:30780): CRITICAL **: gth_extension_manager_open: assertion `description != NULL' failed

Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

0x080b9271 in gth_main_activate_extensions () at gth-main.c:1222

1222 g_warning ("Could not load the '%s' extension: %s", mandatory_extensions[i], error->message);

(gdb) bt

Please can you help me with this ?

You need Fedora 12.

gthumb-2.11.3/gthumb/gth-browser.c:1879: undefined reference to
`gtk_widget_get_allocation'

You need a later version of gtk (2.18.0 or higher, like the one in Fedora 12). The build requirement in 2.11.3 was too low; it checks for the proper version in git master now.

2. Also, extensions were introduced with version 2.11.x . Is there any
way I can get the extensions�

compiled with versions 2.10.x ?�

No.

3. Some newer versions seem to have more extensions (eg. flickr was not
present in 2.11.1). Can
this in any way be added to 2.11.1 ?�(as gthumb <=2.11.1 seems to be
compiling successfully)

Don't use 2.11.1. It has too many bugs.
