hi owen, havoc,
we still need a common directory that gtk+ modules can install
themselves into. some ${prefix}/gtk+-2.0/modules directory or
so that gtk_main() will try to load modules from.
two issue with this:
1) you have the exact dir structure of gtk+ in mind, think
any other place would be better?
2) when compiling against a certain gtk+ version, modules need to
figure where to install themselves to. gtk-config is gone, so
how do we aproach that with pgk-config?
for (2) we could have (in .pc):
Variables: moduledir="${prefix}/gtk+-2.0/modules"
and support
pkg-config --modvar=moduledir gtk+-2.0
unless you'd want to support "moduledir" directly in pkg-config.
