RE: can't install gtk2.0 on solaris 2.8

["David L. Cooper II" <cooperdl worldnet att net>]

I had a similar problem and discovered that the
/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig/*.pc files were installed after the docs. Since
there was an error installing the docs, make exited and never installed the
.pc files.

I first tried to install everything needed to resolve the doc error but soon
gave up after I couldn't get the tools to compile.

My fall back position, suggested by someone on this very list, was to run:
make -k
This causes make to ignore the doc related errors and the .pc files were
processed. Try this for both the initial build as well as the install
(make -k install).

Good Luck.

David
